SOMERSET COUPLE FACES DRUG, WEAPONS CHARGES

Connor Christner and Casey Marie Liska of Somerset are in jail, after being caught driving under the influence of suspected drugs. They were taken into custody after they were found along Stoystown Road, and a hypodermic needle was in plain sight of the arresting officers. A search of the vehicle yielded ten bricks of suspected heroin, cocaine, MDMA pills and other drug paraphernalia. Also found was a semi-automatic shotgun, a pump-action shotgun, and shotgun ammunition. Both have preliminary hearings tomorrow in Somerset County.
