A Wabash Avenue man is facing additional charges as well as a parole violation after Adult Parole Authority agents found pills at his home during a visit about 8 p.m. Thursday.

Charles Sewell is in the Mahoning County jail on a felony charge of possession of drugs as well as a misdemeanor charge of possession of drugs.

Parole agents found 131 painkillers and 38 other pills during a home visit at Sewell’s home in the 900 block of Wabash on the South Side.

Sewell was then turned over to city police, who booked him into the jail. He was arraigned Friday in municipal court.
