Unicoi Co. Search Yields Two Illegal Aliens, Cocaine and Knives

Unicoi County deputies say they arrested two illegal aliens in the process of searching for another wanted man Sunday.
Primitivo Rodriguez and his brother, Gregorio Rodriguez, both face multiple charges.
Deputies originally arrived at their trailer on Railroad Street looking for information regarding someone else’s whereabouts.
The sheriff’s department says Gregorio Rodriguez refused to let officers search the home, but then he told them he had a pistol inside.

Deputies obtained a search warrant. Although they didn’t find the person they were looking for inside, Sheriff Kent Harris says they did discover cocaine and illegal knives.

When Primitivo Rodriguez arrived home, deputies took him and his brother to jail on charges of possession of cocaine for resale.
