A Fulton County Sheriff’s deputy was granted a $2,000 bond Saturday morning after being arrested for drug possession, authorities said.

Deputy Jacqueline Dunn was charged with cocaine and marijuana possession, but it is unclear how much of either drug she had on her at the time of her arrest.

Dunn was booked into the Fulton County Jail Friday night but is expected to leave soon after signing the bond in court, said Fulton County Sheriff’s office spokeswoman Tracy Flanagan. Her next court appearance is scheduled for April 30 at 9 a.m., Flanagan said.

Atlanta police picked Dunn up in Adams Park in southwest Atlanta, authorities said.

Flanagan said Dunn will be placed on indefinite suspension and is being investigated by the Sheriff’s office’s internal affairs division.

The cocaine possession charge is a felony, and the pot charge is a misdemeanor.
