The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office in Alabama has reported the arrest of two individuals following their involvement in “Operation Guardian Sweep.”

On September 25th, law enforcement responded to a suspected drug activity complaint. They spotted a Mercedes at the crossroads of Highway 269 and McDonalds Chapel Road that neglected to use a turn signal. This prompted a traffic stop, leading to arrests. The incident escalated to drug discoveries which enabled detectives to secure a search warrant for a residence on the 3300 block of Bond Avenue.

Robert Clark Jr., 26, faces charges of two counts of drug trafficking and a lane change violation, with a bond set at over $3 million. Anthony Walker, 22, is charged with two counts of drug trafficking and second-degree rape, and he is being held without bail.

Both suspects are being held in the Jefferson County Jail. Anyone with information can contact JCSO at 205-325-1450.
