“Tayonne again? Yes. He was arrested just last week (May 26) on drug dealing charges. Some folks just can’t stay out of the backseat of our patrol cars,” a spokesperson for Richmond Police said in the post.
This arrest was made by the Strategic and Focused Enforcement (S.A.F.E.) Unit.
“When it comes to drug enforcement, we’re not backing down. If the first arrest doesn’t get your attention, the second one will,” Richmond Police Chief Kyle Weatherly said.
