Drug dealers had own takeout window, cops say

WINDER, Ga. — Lt. Frank Farr, an investigator with the Winder Police Department, said he had never seen anything like it in his 20 years of service — a takeout window for drugs.

He found it in Winder this week when authorities arrested two suspected drug dealers.

Police said customers would notify the dealers by ringing a wireless doorbell attached to a tree in a nearby stand of woods, setting off a chime in the second-story apartment. Police said a bucket was lowered and buyers placed their money in it for the dealers to haul up and count, then the drugs were sent back down in the bucket.

Police charged Antwon Scruggs, 30, and his 27-year-old girlfriend, Laurnecia Fulton, with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute.
