Attempted murder suspect removes bag of cocaine from rectum after being arrested at gas station

A Memphis man wanted for attempted murder removed a bag of cocaine from his rectum in front of arresting police officers, according to police.

Memphis police received a tip Thursday that a man with a warrant for attempted murder, Ramone Ivory, was selling drugs outside a gas station, WREG reported.

Officers allegedly watched Ivory conduct a series of hand-to-hand transactions in the store, which had a “no loitering/trespassing” sign posted at the entrance, before a task force entered and arrested him, cops said.

According to the police, they found him with a pistol with 14 live bullets in the magazine, a scale and several bags in his pocket.

Ivory had active warrants for attempted murder and use of a firearm with intent to commit a felony.

After he was placed in the back of a police car, he told officers he had drugs in his rectum.

The officers let Ivory out of the car so he could “search” for the drugs, police said.

He pulled out a white powdery substance (later identified as cocaine) and stomped it on the ground, muttering to police that “it was 3.4 grams.”

Ivory was charged with two counts of possession of drug paraphernalia, tampering with evidence, possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell, criminal trespass, unlawful possession of a weapon and possession of a firearm.

He is being held in the Shelby County Jail on $215,000 bail, jail records show. He is scheduled to appear in court next Monday.
