EMBREEVILLE, Tenn. (WJHL) — In the Embreeville community of Washington County, Tennessee, a man found himself behind bars after deputies reportedly uncovered two ounces of a substance they suspect is fentanyl.

The Washington County Sheriff’s Office (WCSO) shared in a Monday press release that Charles Burgin, 41, was apprehended near the 4000 block of Highway 81 South. During the arrest on Friday, Burgin allegedly informed deputies that the bag they found in his possession contained one ounce of cocaine.
