'It's all his,' woman tells police when search recovers drugs after duo chased

YOUNGSTOWN — Police reports said a man put drugs, $5,000 cash and a handgun in the pants of a woman Thursday while he was being chased by the police.

Reports said vice squad officers Mike Quinn and Jimmy Hughes Jr. tried to pull over a car about 2:55 p.m. driven by Tyrell Hollis, 22, of Curry Place, for an illegal turn in which he almost caused an accident.

Reports said as Hollis was chased down several South Side streets, he could be seen leaning toward a woman in the passenger's seat of the car, Bianca Pressley, 21, of Upland Avenue.

Hollis pulled over in a parking lot at Marion Avenue and Market Street and he was ordered out of the car, reports said. Reports said Hollis and Bianca both smelled of marijuana.

Reports said Pressley gave a bag of marijuana to police and when a female parole officer arrived to help search her, Pressley had a .40-caliber handgun and $5,000 in the front of her pants and bags of crack cocaine and heroin in her bra.

Reports said Pressley repeatedly told police as she was being searched "It's all his."

Both were taken to the Mahoning County jail.
