Jones County deputies say Officer Lacy Ward, who works for the Warsaw Police Department, was arrested just before 5:00 p.m. on charges of conspiracy to sell and deliver Schedule II controlled substances, that being Oxycodone. She is also arrested for interfering with an investigation.
Det. Timothy Corey says Ward was caught on video in a truck with James Parker III of Kinston while they say he was selling drugs to an undercover officer. Corey says at that point they notified the SBI and the FBI.
Ward at one time was a narcotics officer with the Warsaw Police Department, but was on regular patrol at the time of her arrest.
Deputies are still looking for the 29-year-old Parker, who was the subject of the original drug investigation.
