Two Cherokee County residents were arrested Friday on drug charges and booked into the Cherokee County jail.

Elizabeth Valdivia, 30, and Rodolfo Sanchez, 44, were being held Friday without bail following their arrests by members of the District 27 Drug Task Force, agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office and the Tahlequah Police Department.

A spokesman for the Drug Task Force, which also covers Sequoyah County, said the law enforcement officers served a search warrant at the suspects’ home, near Lake Tenkiller. During the search two pounds of what is believed to be uncut crystal methamphetamines and three firearms were found and confiscated.

Sanchez and Valdivia were booked into the Cherokee County Detention Center for trafficking of a controlled dangerous substance, possession of a firearm in commission of a felony and possession of drug paraphernalia.
