“I am incredibly proud of Deputy Camp for his outstanding work removing these dangerous drugs from our streets,” Limestone County Sheriff Joshua McLaughlin stated in the release. “This is a significant step in our ongoing commitment to protect our community from the devastating effects of substance abuse. We will continue to aggressively pursue those who traffic and distribute fentanyl, a substance that poses an enormous risk to our families and loved ones.”

The 53-year-old male from Harvest was arrested and charged with the following offenses:

— Trafficking Fentanyl

— Possession of Marijuana in the 2nd Degree

— Possession of Drug Paraphernalia

At the time of this release, Robinson’s bond has not yet been set by a judge.
