Drug arrest

A Baltimore County man was arrested early this morning after police said they found several vials of suspected PCP in his car.

An officer on foot patrol near Medgar Evers and Frederick Douglass streets spotted a suspected hand-to-hand drug transaction between two men at about 1:40 a.m. When the officer approached, the men ran off in different directions.

The officer located one of the men in a car parked in front of 1182 President St., police said.

As the officer approached the car, he saw the man pouring liquid from a clear glass vial. The officer saw several other glass vials containing liquid he identified as PCP in them. He also saw an open bottle of Bacardi Limon rum in the rear passenger's seat of the car, police said.

Ronald Ingram, 34, of Woodlawn, was charged with drug possession, possession with the intent to distribute and possession of an open container in a vehicle, police said.

Salesman assaulted

A salesman at an Annapolis area costume store was assaulted by a customer outside the business Oct. 14, county police said.

About 1:15 p.m. two young men and two young women walked into the Masquerade and Costume Store at 2337 Forest Drive in the Festival at Riva shopping center.

The 22-year-old salesman told police one of the young men tried on a mask and then knocked it onto the floor.

When the salesman asked the man to hang the mask where he found it, he said, the man told him he'd hung it up correctly and it must have fallen to the floor.

Not believing the man's story, the salesman again asked him to hang the mask on the hook, police said.

As the two men and two women walked toward the door, the salesman said "words were exchanged." The salesman said he told the four to leave the store, and followed them outside.

The young man pushed the salesman twice, and the salesman grabbed him. The salesman was pushed to the ground and struck several times in the head and face, police said.

A woman drove up to the store and honked her horn when she saw what was going on, causing the two men and two women to leave in a green Jeep Cherokee and a black GMC Envoy.

The salesman suffered cuts to his nose, mouth and left eye, police said.
