Arrow Filled With Cocaine Fired At Fayette County Jail

UNIONTOWN, Pa. — (WPXI) – Four people are now facing charges after police say an arrow filled with cocaine was fired at the Fayette County Jail in June. Police said that arrow was fired from the opposite side of Route 21, or McClellandtown Road, toward the jail in Uniontown. They said it was being aimed toward a window, but ended up hitting the building and not reaching the intended target — two inmates who were already in the jail. Staff found the arrow on the ground on June 6. Police checked surveillance video and saw the arrow hit the jail just after 8 p.m. on June 2. Police used bolt cutters to cut the arrow open and found something odd – tips that were cut off of the fingers of a rubber glove. Inside those glove tips? “A significant amount of cocaine,” District Attorney Mike Aubele said. Now, several people are charged with trying to smuggle cocaine into the jail. Charles Smith, Alfonso Pugh, Amanda Frey, and Seth Stepich — who is not yet in custody. Smith and Pugh were already in the jail on other charges, and police say Smith and Frey are in a relationship.
