Two men were arrested Friday on a first-degree felony drug charge by the Ector County Sheriff’s Office.
According to an Ector County Sheriff’s Office report, investigators set up a methamphetamine purchase through a “credible and reliable” confidential informant and arrested Victor Perkins, 56, of Odessa and Henry Valverde, 29, of Midland when both showed up in a parking lot in the 2000 block of East Eighth Street to complete the deal.
Both were booked into the Ector County jail on suspicion of delivery of a controlled substance, four to 200 grams.
Perkins and Valverde remained in custody Monday on $100,000 surety bonds. Valverde is also being held on a parole violation charge.
