CELINA, Ohio (WDTN) - A parking lot heroin deal lands four suspects in jail in Mercer County.

Deputies say they received a tip about drug sales happening in the parking lot of the CVS Pharmacy on North Main Street in Celina.

They say the suspects pulled their car up to another one to make the transaction, then drove away.  Police pulled the cars over once they left the parking lot.

Zachary Sams, 23, is accused of selling the heroin.  He faces drug trafficking and possession of heroin charges.

Kristie Gillette, 19, Michelle Sepulveda, 42, and Casey Hatcher, 18, were also arrested.  Gillette is charged with trafficking while the other two women are charged with possession.

Another man who was driving the women was charged with a traffic violation.  Police believe he was not involved in the drug transactions.

All are being held in the Mercer County Jail on $50,000 bond apiece.
