The Ohio Highway Patrol arrested six people, including four from Cabell County, during a pair of traffic stops along U.S. 23 in Scioto County.
Friday night, troopers arrested Harrison Burrows, 24, of Ona, W.Va. and Victor Owens, 24, of Huntington during a traffic stop.
Inside their SUV, troopers say they found 56 grams of marijuana and 93 ecstasy pills.
According to the press release, the men were traveling form Columbus to Huntington.
In a separate traffic stop early Monday, patrol officers arrested Melody Copper, 31,of Huntington, Mitchell Goodwin, 31 of Huntington, William Crews, 33 of Cleveland, and Mark Davis, 30 of Detroit on drug charges.
Troopers say they found more than 400 Oxycontin pills and a small amount of marijuana in their car. They say the four were traveling from Detroit to Huntington.
A 5-year-old girl who was in the car was taken into state custody.
All six people face various drug charges and are being held in the Scioto County Jail.

You can gripe about these clinics all you want and chant "shut them down"...when they open the doors to these things, they ARE AWARE that they only have a window of opportunity to make the millions that they make. THEY KNOW THEY WILL BE SHUT DOWN-and they will be ahead of the game when they are. They will be packed up, gone, and have a shop set up-POISED FOR THE KY, WV, OH crew to come get their Oxy's. We Need laws to aid in law enforcement to break the door down even if they THINK just ONE person is getting the wrong meds for a headache. GOOD LUCK OHIO, you're gonna need it.

I have lost too many friends to drug use and i think ALL dope dealing dr's need canned. I personaly knew the woman shot in Scioto County. I can remember her daughter at about 1 yr old and her mother loved her so much. It was a horrible thing that happened to her, she was a great person with a good heart and loved her child. She just got caught up in the wrong things. I I feel sorrow for her and her daughter. I wish her daughter the best.
