North Carolina ALE – Alcohol Law Enforcement – decided to celebrate Alcohol Awareness Month by charging over 200 people with over 300 alcohol and drug-related crimes, including 64 felonies. But before you start checking to see if your weird Uncle Silas is missing—along with the still he kept in the basement – rest easy. The only charges in Craven County involved five individuals, an outstanding warrant and six traffic citations. New Bern Police Lieutenant Donald McInnis said New Bern police were involved only minimally in the busts. Craven County Sheriff Chip Hughes said his office did not take part. Most of the arrests took place in the Wilmington area, according to an ALE spokesman, where special agents raided an illegal bar for numerous misdemeanor alcohol and felony drug offenses. The ALE spokesman identified the sites as “Shot house stuff,” he said, “when they sell drugs and alcohol illegally in houses.”
