BOARDMAN

Township police seized a gun and prescription painkiller pills from a Market Street motel room Wednesday and made three arrests, according to a police report.

Police made contact with the suspects at Town and Country Motel after an officer conducting a security check discovered that a car in the parking lot was listed as a stolen vehicle.

The officer reported seeing C’Asia Fleeton, 18, of Youngstown, standing outside the vehicle and Wilson Nadal, 20, also of Youngstown, exit the vehicle and enter a motel room.

The officer called for back-up, and police searched the room, where they came into contact with Tashaela Marshall, 19, of Campbell, according to the report.

Asked if there were weapons in the room, Marshall pointed to a gun, police said.

Police reported that lying next to the loaded gun was a Crown Royal bag containing 44 Tramadol pills. Tramadol is a prescription opioid.

According to court records, all three are charged with possession of drugs/drug abuse.

Wilson also is charged with unauthorized use of a vehicle and on an outstanding warrant for failure to appear in court.
