Officers arrested and charged 26-year-old Tavarus Britton, of Georgetown, and 24-year-old Benquan Reed, also of Georgetown, in connection with the seizure.

Britton is charged with possession of cocaine, possession of crack cocaine, unlawful possession of a pistol and distributing cocaine, according to Capt. John Harrelson with HCPD. He added Reed is charged with unlawful possession of a pistol and possession of heroin.
