University of Alabama Students Arrested in Two Epic Spring Break Cases

Alden Whiteside could not have handled things worse on his way Spring Break in Florida.  First, there was the seven cases of beer in plain view in his truck.  Then there was the problem of being 19 and not allowed to drink or buy alcohol.  Then there was the fact that he was speeding.  Then there was the fake driver’s license that he was using.  Finally, there was the marijuana discovered in the car.  That pretty much covers most of the criminal code.  He was not the only Alabama college student facing charges from a Spring Break gone bad.

Whiteside is an University of Alabama student and seemed a bit too eager to get to Spring Break in Destin.

This week there was another arrest of  University of Alabama students at break in Destin.  Jacob Annan, 19, (left) and Bradley Thomson, 18, were arrested as a security check on a boat moored in Destin.  They were with two females.  The deputy smell pot from a bong Thomson was holding.  Police also should that Thomson tried to hide a black and silver lockbox, which contained an assortment of narcotics as well as baggies and scales. They also found 24 cans of Bud Light in Annan’s backpack.

Thomson was charged with possession of controlled substances with the intent to distribute. Those drugs included alprazolam, cocaine, and amphetamine. He was also charged with possession of marijuana THC extract with intent to distribute, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of a fraudulent driver’s license.

Annan was charged with underage possession of alcohol and possession of a fake driver’s license.
