CECIL COUNTY, Md. — A student was arrested at North East High School on Monday, accused of selling edibles to other students.

According to the Cecil County Sheriff's Office, a school resource officer searched the book bag belonging to 18-year-old Dea'Vean Lashey Fields. They said the officer found three vacuum-sealed bags containing squares of edibles that look like multi-colored cereal. They say they also found $130 in cash.

The sheriff's office says Fields sold the drugs to seven students that morning. All of the suspected students were notified and the drugs were seized.

Fields is now facing several drug-related charges. Authorities say the investigation is ongoing.
