The Brownwood Police Department was able to secure two drug related arrests Wednesday with a little luck when one suspect dialed a wrong number - that of a police officer.
Brownwood Police netted a drug arrest on Wednesday, according to BPD officials, after a suspect dialed a Brownwood narcotics officer's cell phone by mistake, offering him a chance to purchase drugs.
Officials state that the male caller left a message stating that he had prescription drugs which he was willing to sell. In an undercover effort, the officer made arrangements to meet with the caller.
The suspect, identified as 51-year-old James Dunn (left), was accompanied by his wife, 64-year-old Bertha Dunn (below) when they met the officer at the former Food Plaza building on Belle Plain. The solicitors wanted to trade the prescription drugs for marijuana, police said.
Assisted by Brown County Sheriff's investigators and Brownwood patrol officers, the BPD narcotics officer arrested the couple and charged them with two counts of Delivery of a Dangerous Drug.
