The Brandon Police Department issued the following statement.
On June 18, 2018, at approximately 2320 hours, a Brandon PD Narcotics Detective stopped a 2015 Toyota Corolla for speeding on I-20 east bound near mile marker 57. After stopping the vehicle the driver accelerated and a vehicle pursuit was initiated.
The vehicle continued east bound where Rankin County Interdiction Team units assisted with the pursuit. The pursuit continued into Scott and Newton Counties where the driver finally came to a stop at exit 100.
During the investigation it was found that the driver Andre Coles and the passenger Alexuis Morgan both from Winston Salem, NC, were in possession of approximately 2 ounces of heroin and 2 ounces of methamphetamine. Both were arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute. Coles was charged with felony fleeing and was also found to be a fugitive from Michigan, wanted for cocaine possession. Both individuals were booked into the Rankin County Jail.
The Brandon Police Department would like to thank all of the agencies who assisted in this pursuit.

Hats off to the BPD and RCSH. Now just waiting for the expected innuendos regarding the Morgan woman.
2 ounces? To distribute?
O.k. - let's get to the point
".................from Winston Salem, NC, were in possession of approximately 2 ounces of heroin and 2 ounces of methamphetamine."
Whoever they were getting ready to deliver that to, contacted their "favorite" cop and sent them on a mission. He gets the dope and delivers it at discount prices.
Rankin's finest doing what they do best, busting the brown skin drug dealers and not the white ones.
Call me when we start seeing some white faces busted for drug sales in Rankin County
Chased one going east? The Civil Asset Forfeiture discussion must be taking a toll - decided to stop one for 2 oz, and no cash.
2320 hours
I lived and worked in Wilmington, North Carolina from 2014-2015 and heroin was so prevalent you’d think they were giving it away. Not marijuana. Not meth. Looks like these folks are from that neck of the woods. Goodbye, idiots.
Welcome to Rankin County. Mississippi Andre and Alexius!
She probably had to pee. And as for that 2015 Toyota, well, it went right past the Mayor of Pelahatchie as well.
10:55, you won't hear about the seized cash any more. Totally stupid for any LEO to ever mention the cash haul.
If they had only known to turn around and go to Kenny's house.
Sooooo, 10:49 AM.....
Only the "white faces" (a favorite lefty term these days) are the only drug traffickers you feel should be busted, no?
10:49am you are delusional
A 40-mile high speed chase? Put hundreds in danger, tied up dozens of officers, all for a couple ounces? What a waste of resources.
And by the way, I'd hit that!
Geez, four hours later and no one has commented on the woman's looks. Highly unusual. Hate to say it, but if she were white, I believe there would have been comments.
"Dealers" yeah right..another waste of law enforcement resources prosecuting the losing and unwinnable drug war. Sad!
One Municipal Court Judge in the Tri-County metro area stated that heroin is now more prevalent than meth and other drugs (except marijuana) because it is very cheap and there seems to be no demographic which favors it (i.e., upper and lower class, professional and non-professional, male and female, black and white and hispanic). I was really surprised. After hearing this, I have been surprised we are not seeing more big busts involving heroin.
@2:10
That’s because that would make her attractive. And less likely to have diseases, according to statistics.
10:19, 1:58, 2:40.... How was the officer to know there was "Only 2 ounces" of dope in the car? Could have easily been 20 pounds. The guy ran. Had he pulled over, presented a drivers license, proof of insurance, been cool and not a smart ass he just might have been sent on his way. BUT NO, Coles chose to run while he had dope in his ride and now he's locked up......what a dumbass.
Generally it is peoples mouths that get them ticketed or locked up.
Two ounces between two people is 'intent to distribute'? That's nuts.
And for the horn-dog who always says "I'd hit it", wait till she pulls off that purple wig and smiles through the gold-grill with four gaps. But, even that is probably your standard. Stay in touch with your health department nurse.
OK 10:49; Look Pancho, nobody intends to deliver with an ounce possession per person. What grade are you in at Pearl?
I like to keep my stash at about 3oz, for me and the boys
To those of you that are ridiculing LEO's for doing their sworn duty: I pray that you never have a family member or loved one that has become addicted to drugs. I don't care what the drug of choice might be and I don't care if it is .01 of an ounce or 10 lbs. Families are being torn apart and lives ruined because of drugs. I know. I have a child who has been battling drug addition for over 10 years. I would do almost anything to turn back the hands of time and be able to prevent it.
Thank You officers for helping rid the streets of these killers!
8:50pm, I'm sorry for your situation, but being angry at the dealers is pointing your anger at the wrong Target.
We cannot and will not arrest our way out of the War on Drugs. It just ain't gonna happen. You can arrest them, execute them, whatever. The centuries have shown that as long as people like your son want to get high, someone will supply it. Filling the jails with low level dealers and drug users hasn't made a dent in the problem, nor has it caused your son to get clean. But you've made the prison companies rich, that's about all that has happened.
Nobody, above, has ridiculed the cops who pulled them over (except, I suppose, for the dullard who commented on the forty mile chase). The ridicule is aimed at the claim that possession of two ounces between two people is 'intent to distribute'. That's absurd. But Michael Guest's boys will run with it.
Anyone who thinks that a baseball sized wad of dope is personal stash needs to have their veins checked
MS code of 1972: 41-29-139, Prohibited Acts.
If you howling fools on the West side of the Pearl River would take the time to look at what the law says you would see that Rankin County is enforcing the law. If you don’t like that I would suggest that you stay the Hell on the West side of the pearl with your dope. If you bring it over here (on the East side) we will bust you, Michael Guest, or whoever is elected in his place when he is elected to Congress, will prosecute you and send your sorry criminal a$$ to the penitentiary. Now! Is that plain enough for you to understand?
Who said anything about a 'baseball sized wad of dope', Dilbert?
It's still mighty curious that these people who are tooling along minding they own bidness are suddenly weaving and have a tail light out.
