CULLMAN — Tuesday October 6, 2015, Agents with the Cullman Narcotics Enforcement Team (CNET), arrested Jose Marcelino Guzman, 22 years old of Albertville, Ala. following a traffic stop at the intersection of U.S. Highway 157 and Eva Road.   
 
After detaining Mr. Guzman at the scene and discovering he had a warrant for his arrest CNET agents also obtained probable cause to search his vehicle. This is when agents discovered ICE, a purer form of meth, acid, and marijuana hidden in the vehicle. 

 Mr. Guzman’s arrest led to the seizer of 10 grams ICE, 4 grams of acid and a small amount of marijuana. 

“Acid isn’t something we have seen in Cullman County in a while so I am glad we seized it before it hit the streets,” said Sheriff Matt Gentry. I would also like to commend the CNET agents for their vigilant and proactive approach to keep our community free from these drugs,” added Sheriff Matt Gentry.  

Mr. Guzman is currently being held in the Cullman County Detention Center on an $8,000 bond.  

Mr. Guzman is charged with Unlawful Possession of Control Substance, Unlawful Possession of Marijuana 2nd, and Unlawful Possession of Drug Paraphernalia.

As the investigation continues other charges may be pending.
