Anthony Leopold Rowe, a 26-year-old Easton man was jailed Wednesday after he allegedly tried to ingest marijuana from his "anal cavity" during a police raid.According to Easton police, undercover officers and special response units executed a drug search warrant at Rowe's residence around 6:00 a.m.
The felony drug warrant had been issued back in September after Rowe was suspected of drug trafficking.
During the raid, Rowe reportedly attempted to swallow a bag of marijuana that he had previously hidden in his anal cavity. Police believe Rowe may have also ingested heroin in an attempt to destroy evidence.
Rowe then allegedly tried to flush drugs down the toilet, but officers were able to retrieve them. In total, officers recovered about $100 worth of marijuana and about $1,000 worth of heroin. Rowe was taken to a local hospital for treatment, and was jailed upon release.
He was booked into the Northhampton County Prison on charges of possession with intent to deliver heroin, possession of marijuana, and tampering with evidence. He also faces charges of delivery of a controlled substance and criminal use of a communication device. He is currently being held in lieu of $100,000 bail.
