Three people have been arrested after the Onslow County Sheriff’s Office received complaints that drugs were being sold in Verona.

The county's Drug Enforcement Unit witnessed what appeared to be a drug deal near the Scotchman at Hwy 210 and U.S. 17 on Friday.

Officials say Kira Mino and Arther Gunter III approached Beverly Williams in her car to purchase drugs.

Williams was arrested for the possession and sale of heroin.

Gunter is accused of driving Mino to purchase the heroin. Officials say a K-9 smelled drugs from outside the car and gave them probable cause to search the vehicle, where they found heroin and various drug paraphernalia.

Both Mino and Gunter were arrested and charged with the possession of heroin and drug paraphernalia.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Onslow County Sheriff's Office at 910-455-3113 and refer to case 2019011373.
