Athens-Clarke County police said they arrested a suspected dealer Tuesday evening after he fought with officers following a traffic stop and ate bags of marijuana.
Darin Lamar Brown, 45, was driving a car in the area of North Avenue and Willow Street at about 6:10 p.m. when an officer ran a check on the car’s tag and learned that the vehicle had no insurance, police said.
During a traffic stop, Brown told the officer he did not have a license and said he just needed to get the car to a relative’s home at Bethel Midtown Village, police said.
