Barrington Police charge man living in Veterans Park woods
Man faces drug possession charge
On Wednesday, Feb. 22, Barrington Police charged Samuel I. Lawson, 27, of Warren, with possession of a schedule I to V controlled substance-first offense.
Police said Lawson has been living with his dog in the woods at Veterans Park, behind the Bayside YMCA. Police said people are not allowed to camp or stay overnight in the park.
While investigating the situation earlier, police allegedly discovered a controlled substance — methamphetamine — in Lawson’s possession.
The animal control officer brought Lawson’s dog to one of his friends while Lawson was charged and arraigned. Police are trying to find housing for Lawson. His last known address was a Water Street apartment in Warren.
