Drug deal in Walmart parking lot nets arrest

A man was arrested Friday after allegedly selling drugs in the Norwalk Walmart parking lot.

The Norwalk Police Department, a member of the 10-county drug task force METRICH, along with assistance from the state Highway Patrol, arrested Ethan W. Spiggle on trafficking in drugs.

Spiggle, 21, of Vickery, traveled to Norwalk and sold Percocets to a confidential informant in the parking lot of Walmart, police Detective Sgt. Seth Fry said.
Spiggle was stopped on Milan Avenue by Officer Dave Daniels and Sgt. Tony Myers, of the patrol.

Spiggle was found to be in possession of money that had been given to the confidential informant to purchase the Percocets, Fry said.

During an interview after the arrest, Spiggle admitted selling Percocets, Fry said.

This investigation is ongoing and additional arrests are likely.
