Bullets on the ground

A Whiteville youth previously convicted of firing into a home is facing new felonies.

Notorious D. Taylor, 17, of 402 W. Lewis St., Whiteville, has been charged with possession with intent to sell and deliver cocaine, maintaining a dwelling for drug activities, possession of a weapon of mass destruction, possession of a firearm by a felon, and manufacture, sale, distribution or possession of drugs within 1,000 feet of a school. His bond information was not available.
