QuoteBlue Ridge Parkway Drug Arrest Ranger Ben Hansel came upon a truck parked in the roadway exit of the Chestoa view overlook with its lights off on the evening of January 23rd. He stopped to check it and found that it was occupied by a naked man covered with baby oil who had a pair of women’s underwear at his feet. Hansel asked for identification, then noticed what he believed to be a crack pipe in the driver’s side handle compartment. When Hansel reached for the pipe, the driver, Marvin Buchanon, grabbed and crushed it, cutting his hand on the broken glass. Buchanon then attempted to start the truck and drive off, but Hansel pulled the keys from the ignition. A struggle ensued. Hansel ordered Buchanon to keep his hands on the steering wheel, but Buchanon refused to comply and kept reaching under the seat. Hansel used OC spray on Buchanon, then handcuffed him. Hansel searched the vehicle and turned up pornography, drug paraphernalia, and several suspected narcotics, including crack cocaine, several different unidentified pills in plastic bags, and sugar tablets in small tin boxes that may be LSD. Buchanon was treated for lacerations and the effects of the OC spray. Ranger Brian Stackowicz assisted with transporting the prisoner to a local jail, where charges were filed. Hansel was not injured in the incident. [Submitted by Chief Ranger's Office] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
