A federal grand jury indicted Emily Cuthbertson and Gordon Hall Jr. for unlawful flight to avoid prosecution earlier this month.

According to a search warrant filed at the Rowan County Courthouse, Salisbury Police Detective J.D. Barber said he had received information that Hall, “who is also known as Wheat,” was storing crack cocaine in a unit at Morningstar.

Barber saw a light-colored Lexus with tinted windows, matching the description of Hall’s vehicle, pull into the Morningstar business while it was under surveillance. The man driving immediately pulled out and drove away.

Barber managed to get the license number and determined it was registered to Mary Patterson Hall, of 1320 Kenly St., where Gordon Hall Jr. also lives, the search warrant said.
