A drug investigation that started at Lexington Market led to a raid Tuesday evening in Northeast Baltimore that netted 85 pounds of suspected marijuana and the seizure of more than $2,100 in cash, police said.
The raid occurred about 5 p.m. in the 1600 block of Waverly Way, in the Renaissance Club apartments. Detective Kevin Brown, a city police spokesman, said David Andrews, 48, and Dwayne Jackson, 51, are believed to have been supplying dealers at the downtown market. Court records show the men were apprehended after fleeing from the back of the residence when police knocked on the door.
Jackson was being held on $2 million bond, while Andrews was held on $500,000 bond, according to court records. Neither man appeared to have a criminal record in the city.
