Michael Ray Hayes
A Sallisaw man was arrested in Vian Feb. 2 and charged with the unlawful possession of a controlled drug with the intent to distribute, court records show.
Michael Ray Hayes, 45, faces up to five years in prison and a fine of up to $20,000 on the charge. He was also charged with possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, which is punishable by 2-10 years in prison.
On Feb. 2, Sequoyah County sheriff’s deputies executed a state search warrant at Hayes’ residence. Receiving no response to their knock, officers breached the door and discovered Hayes in a bedroom.
During a search of the residence, deputies discovered a gray zipper bag containing numerous hypodermic syringes, two sets of digital scales and five plastic baggies containing a white, crystalline substance, which field-tested positive for methamphetamine. The total weight of the meth in the baggies was 153 grams.
Under a mattress, a Rossi .357 Magnum revolver loaded with six rounds was discovered, and a black plastic container containing a green, leafy substance was found on the nightstand.
Hayes was placed under arrest for warrants out of Sequoyah County as well as drug possession and the gun charge.
