According to a spokesperson from the sheriff's office Fenwick was caught red-handed attempting to hide a loaded Glock 9mm semi-automatic handgun outside of a sliding class doors as deputies approached to execute the warrant.
During a search of their Lexington Park home, another Glock handgun with an extended clip was found in the possession of a 17-year-old, and Neale was found to be in possession of 103 suspected oxycodone and fentanyl pills.
Officials noted that Fenwick and the teen are both prohibited from possessing firearms, and the amount of pills Neale was busted with "is indicative of possession with an intent to distribute."
