Two arrested on drug charges

SEBRING - Stephen Michael Sramek Jr., 22, and Stephanie Michelle Andrews, 21, both of 9150 Morgan Path, Sebring, were arrested Friday and charged with distributing amphetamine and marijuana, respectively.

A car was stopped at the corner of Lakeview Drive and Valencia Street after a Sebring Police officer determined the loud music he was hearing in the area was coming from the vehicle, according to the arrest report.

Police searched Sramek, the passenger, and reportedly found a pill bottle containing approximately 129 Xanax pills that were made by different manufacturers.

When Officer John Garrison asked Andrews, the driver, if she had anything illegal on her, she pulled out four baggies containing marijuana, the report stated.

SPD Officer Chad Landry made the arrest.
