DOVER — A father and son were arrested on drug charges following an investigation into alleged drug sales from their residence, Dover police spokesman Sgt. Mark Hoffman said.

According to police, Pierre Foreman Jr., 28, was allegedly selling large amounts of marijuana from the home in the 1400 block of College Road. He was stopped Wednesday while driving a vehicle in the area of White Oak Road and Dover Park and 24.7 grams of marijuana and $455 in possible drug proceeds were located, police said.

A search warrant was obtained by police for Mr. Foreman Jr.’s residence on College Road. At approximately 3:14 p.m., officers executed the search warrant and took Pierre Foreman Sr., 58, into custody without incident, authorities said.

During the search, officers located 4,240 grams (9.348 pounds) of marijuana, a 9mm handgun with an extended magazine, and $52,020 in alleged drug proceeds, police said. The firearm was later determined to be stolen from Kentucky in 2017, police said.

The men were both charged with possession with intent to deliver marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of marijuana, possession of firearm during commission of a felony, possession of firearm/ammunition by person prohibited, receiving stolen firearm, and second degree conspiracy. Mr. Foreman Jr. was also charged with traffic offenses.

Mr. Foreman Jr. was committed to Sussex Correctional Institution on a $121,200 cash bond, while Mr. Foreman Sr. was released on an unsecured bond.
