Investigators
with the Burke County Narcotics Task Force arrested a 42-year-old Morganton man
yesterday, charging him with selling drugs from his Suburban Drive
residence.

counts of possession with intent to sell and deliver a schedule II drug, and
one count of possession with intent to sell a schedule IV drug. |

Cantrell's residence. Officers conducted a search and reportedly found
oxycontin, methadone, percocet and xanax, which they say was being sold from
the residence. |
