A 69-year-old Eagle Springs man was jailed at the Moore County Detention Center under a $50,000 secured bond and is facing several drug charges after being arrested following a Moore County Sheriff’s Department drug investigation.

Robert Diggs was arrested on charges of possession with intent to sell and deliver schedule II-controlled substance, maintain a vehicle, dwelling, or place to keep a controlled substance, simple possession of schedule II-controlled substance, simple possession of schedule VI-controlled substance, and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Moore County Sheriff Ronnie Fields announced his department “executed a search warrant in the 300 block of Sawgrass Road in Eagles Springs” on Friday.
