Sheriff Ken Mascara announced today that the St. Lucie County Sheriff’s Office arrested Gary Henderson for possession of drugs on school campus shortly before 7 p.m. Thursday evening.
According to Sheriff Mascara, Henderson, 19, of Port St. Lucie, was working as a custodian at Dale Cassens Education Complex in Fort Pierce at the time of his arrest.
“School Resource Deputies received information on Thursday, which suggested that Henderson may have been selling drugs on the school campus,” said Sheriff Mascara. “After questioning Henderson, deputies found MDMA, LSD and Xanax in his possession.”
According to Sheriff Mascara, the allegations that prompted this arrest are still under investigation.
“We continue to work diligently with St. Lucie Public Schools and our neighboring law enforcement partners to provide a safe learning environment for our children,” said Sheriff Mascara. “It is important for parents to talk to their children about not only the dangers of drug use but also the consequences. It is our job to protect students from predators on and off campus.”
Henderson was released from the St. Lucie County Jail on a $9,000 bond.
