Man found with PCP bound for court
A Uniontown man accused of standing in the middle of traffic, grunting at police while in possession of liquid PCP in the middle of the night will have his day in court. State police Trooper Christopher T. Cole said Leon Russell Thomas, 36, was charged before Magisterial District Judge Michael M. Metros with two counts possession of a controlled substance, resisting arrest, disorderly conduct, public drunkenness and two other summary charges following the incident.
During a preliminary hearing held today before Metros, Thomas waived all charges against him to Fayette County Court.
According to Cole, the incident occurred shortly after 2 a.m. Feb. 22 when officers were driving on Connellsville Street.
