HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- Police say a fast food worker was doing more than just cooking pizzas.

Ronell Terrence Buckner was busted tonight at a local pizza shop charged with selling OxyContin.

Investigators brought out the Huntington K-9 unit to help search Buckner’s apartment in the 600 block of 11th avenue.

There they say they found a large amount of oxy and some cocaine.

Buckner who was on home confinement for a previous drug charge lives within 500 feet of Southside Elementary, which can mean a longer sentence.

Neighbors recently tipped off the Huntington drug and vice unit, and they called in the State Police and FBI on the investigation.

Way to go Larry. Thank god someone else realizes treatment is a joke unless you really want it. More prisons = less thugs on the street!

It is clear that this property owner and this landklord did nothing to screen this tenant's background -- a known drug history and home confinement? How can any responsible property owner allow this to move into anyone's neighborhood -- especially one with a grade school one block away! Landlords and property owners - get some responsibility other than padding your own pockets!

Arrest them all, 95 percent of the crimes in the area are drug related. Locking them up is the true rehab and the true answer to the crime problem. Build more prisons...
