(11-12-23) The Celina Police Department arrested Charles Hawkey (35) on a 2nd degree felony charge of possession of drugs (schedule I or II substance) and a 1st degree misdemeanor charge of theft without consent.

In Ohio, having any Schedule I or II drug in your possession is automatically a felony. In addition, having more than 199 grams of marijuana is a felony. This is considerably more serious than a misdemeanor drug arrest, both in terms of financial consequences and potential prison time.
Schedule II drugs: opium, oxycodone, fentanyl, amphetamine, and meth
Hawkey is being held without bond at the Mercer County Adult Detention Facility and waiting court appearances in Municipal and Common Pleas Courts.
