An East Brewton woman was arrested on drug charges after receiving an envelope that contained 30 lortab pills in the mail.
Lisa King Pritchett, 47, 210 Ball Lane, Lot No. 3, was charged with unlawful possession of a controlled substance.
East Brewton Police Chief Kenny Brazille said his office received information that someone living in the trailer park on Ball Lane was receiving drugs through the mail. An investigation was launched and Sgt. Paige Howell was watching her mailbox when Pritchett retrieved the envelope.
Howell approached her and discovered the lortab pills inside. Pritchett did not have a prescription for the drugs.
Chief Brazille said the investigation is continuing as officers try to determine where the drugs were mailed from.
