DELAND, Fla. — A suspected drug dealer was arrested while trying to flee a drug bust on a scooter in Volusia County Friday morning. 

The Volusia Sheriff’s Office carried out a search warrant Friday at a home at 357 Lingering Lane in DeLand as part of an ongoing drug investigation. 

The sheriff’s office said deputies spotted James Burges, 35, leaving the scene in a car before SWAT stopped him. Detectives seized fentanyl, powder cocaine, pills and a loaded gun inside the car, the sheriff’s office said. 

As Burges was being arrested, his girlfriend, 34-year-old Nicole Wert, was spotted by the agency’s air unit fleeing on a scooter with another man, deputies said. Aerial footage shows the two falling off the scooter while turning onto a roadway. They were tracked down and arrested. 

Wert was charged with sale and delivery of fentanyl. The other man on the scooter has not been charged with anything, so his face is blurred in the video above. 

Burges was charged with armed trafficking of fentanyl, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, possession of cocaine with intent to sell, possession of alprazolam, renting a structure for drug sales, possession of narcotic paraphernalia, driving with a suspended license and failure to appear warrants.
