Officers were in the area of White Oak Drive and Barnard Avenue, stepping up patrols after a spate of burglaries, when they saw three people walking down Wood Avenue.
When police stopped the trio and identified themselves, the suspect threw the bag on the ground as he got out his identification for the officer, police said.
Patrick Dustin Daniel, 25, was charged with possession of a dangerous drug after police recovered the baggie with five Xanax pills. Daniel’s two companions were released.
Guilty pleas
Sentenced after pleading guilty Friday in Troup Superior Court were:
— Jeremy Lee Tenney, 19, of LaGrange; three years in prison, seven years’ probation and $250 restitution for burglaries in the 1400 block of Park Avenue and the 2200 block of Bartley Road.

Indictments
A Troup County grand jury Friday returned 24 indictments for Superior Court. Among those charged were:
— Steven Kyle Tucker, 22, of LaGrange; four counts of child molestation for “immoral and indecent” acts with a girl younger than 16.
— Willie Eugene Davis, 35, of LaGrange; aggravated sexual battery, aggravated child molestation and two counts of child molestation, all involving the same girl younger than 16.
