A city man was in the Warren County Jail this morning charged with the sale of cocaine, Vicksburg police Lt. Bobby Stewart said.

Javell Mason, 22, 2008 Pearl St., was arrested at his home around 2 p.m. Wednesday after police recovered about $100 in cocaine, Stewart said. The arrest comes after a monthlong investigation stemming from complaints of drug activity in the area.

This was Mason’s second arrest for selling cocaine. He is under indictment for an arrest on the same charge in July, Stewart said.
