A man who tried to hide his coke from police faces multiple charges after they found several grams of the white powdery drug in his groin region during a search.

The suspect, Andrea Rashad Sutton, 46, was bound over on the charges of possession of schedule II drugs: cocaine 0.5 grams or higher, possession of schedule VI drugs, tampering with evidence, vehicles/streetcars stop at all stop signs and failure to appear in court.

Tullahoma police approached him after he was seen leaving a place known to authorities as a hotbed of drug activity. Once stopped on East Hogan Street, a search was conducted of his vehicle after the driver reportedly showed the officer some marijuana stashed inside a Styrofoam up. Police went on to find five more ounces of marijuana and a gram of cocaine in the car and another gram of coke in the trunk. However, the biggest find came later when Sutton was personally searched.

“A subsequent search of Mr. Sutton revealed a second bag with approximately seven grams of cocaine he had placed in his genital area,” police revealed.
