LYNN — Officers from the Lynn Drug Task Force went looking for cocaine at one woman’s apartment, but found a handgun and suboxone instead.
Officers executed a search warrant Tuesday at 3 Kingsley Terrace, Apt. 3, where Angela Douyon-Previlon lives. They were searching for crack cocaine and had probable cause that she was dealing drugs from the apartment, Lynn Police Lt. Rick Donnelly said.
While no cocaine was found, officers discovered a Colt .38 special revolver, six strips of suboxone and drug paraphernalia, Donnelly said.
Douyon-Previlon, 34, was charged with firearm use in a felony, suboxone possession with intent to distribute and other firearm related charges.
Also in the apartment was Taylor Mills, 24, of Peabody. Officers found that she had a warrant from Lynn District Court for larceny and receiving stolen property and a warrant from Swampscott for motor vehicle violations.
During an inventory search of her pocketbook, officers found pills. She was arrested and also charged with drug possession for methadone, cyclobenzaprine, ropinirole, clonidine and buspirone, Donnelly said.
