North Lima man faces drug charges after arrest in Youngstown

YOUNGSTOWN — A North Lima man was booked into the Mahoning County jail late Tuesday afternoon after officers found suspected crack cocaine and heroin in a car in which he was a passenger.

Reports said officers spotted a car about 4:45 p.m. in front of a known drug house in the 200 block of Potomac Avenue on the South Side. The officers got permission to search the car from the driver, and when they did, they found the drugs in the door next to the passenger seat where Randal Sparks, 50, was sitting.

Sparks was booked into the jail on charges of possession of heroin and possession of crack cocaine.
