Drug dealer accidentally texts cop

The Yadkin County Sheriff's Office shared on its Facebook page on Monday, April 8 that a drug dealer had texted an officer with videos of marijuana.

"This afternoon one of our sergeants at the Yadkin County Sheriff’s Office received random texts from an unknown number. The texts included a video displaying marijuana and prices for various amounts. When asked if they would like to meet up in Yadkinville the person sending the texts said that they were on the way.

Needless to say, we obliged and our ACE Team met the individual (although the deal likely did not go as he’d planned). The individual on the sending end of the texts was identified as Infinite Chancelle Hamza Stern, age 27 of Walkertown," read the post.

Stern was arrested at the scene and charged with the following:

• 1 felony count of Possession with Intent to Manufacture Sell and Deliver a Schedule VI Controlled Substance

• 1 felony count of Maintaining a Dwelling/Vehicle for the Sale of Controlled Substances

• 1 misdemeanor count of Possession of Marijuana Paraphernalia

• 2 misdemeanor counts of Child Abuse

• 1 misdemeanor count of Driving While License Revoked

Stern received no bond due to being out on bond for other pending charges and was scheduled to appear in Yadkin County court on April 10.

The Sheriff's Office post concluded with a tongue-in-cheek message encouraging others who sell drugs to make a similiar mistake.

"If you are a local drug dealer and would like to show us your drugs please feel free to contact us as this individual did. Call 336-849-7811 anytime as we have dispatchers and deputies available 24 hours a day. We’d be happy to arrange such meetings with as many folks as possible."
