Three women were arrested on drug charges Tuesday after Caddo Sheriff’s patrol deputies found a large amount of suspected narcotics in their vehicle, said Sheriff Steve Prator.

Deputies were called to a store at 4901 Northport Blvd. in reference to possible illegal activity involving the three women. Upon arrival, they found the women in their vehicle at the fuel station outside the store.

Deputies determined that the vehicle they were driving possessed a switched license plate. After further investigation, a vehicle search was conducted and illegal narcotics were found inside the car.
