Agents with the Maine Drug Enforcement Agency made the arrest, assisted by officers from the Rockland Police Department, Knox County Sherriff’s Office and Maine State Police.
Drug agents arrested Fuller-McMahan after they saw her participating in a drug deal in a private parking lot along New County Road, said Roy McKinney, director of the MDEA.
Agents seized Fuller-McMahan’s car, about an ounce of cocaine that was hidden in her pants and some hypodermic needles, McKinney said. The street value of the cocaine is about $2,500.
She was taken to the Knox County Jail in Rockland and has been freed on $5,000 unsecured bail pending an Aug. 25 appearance in Rockland Superior Court.
McMahan was arrested by MDEA in 1997 and convicted of possessing heroin, according to police.
