Clyde Hudlin, 64, attempted to sell illegal drugs in a drug-free zone, leading to a swift arrest.
WACO, Texas — A Waco man is sentenced to 44 years in jail on two counts of possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver in a drug-free zone.
A resident, living close to the intersection of 65th Street and Sanger Avenue, contacted Waco Police Department on April 23, 2024 and said a man knocked on their door trying to sell fentanyl and methamphetamine. The resident refused and called authorities immediately, according to the department’s press release.
The location was very close to Tennyson Middle School, and thereby within a legally designated drug-free zone. Colleges, universities, and schools are typically considered drug-free zones.
Police reportedly found Clyde Hudlin, 64, in the area with a prescription pill bottle in his pocket, featuring pills that did not match the bottle’s label. Officers arrested Hudlin and brought him to McLennan County Jail.
