Talia N. Castilla, 19, of Columbus, was issued a summons for possession of drugs and Hailey N. Bertison, 19, of Dublin, Ohio, was issued a summons for an open container in a motor vehicle during an incident Friday at Mad River Mountain, 1000 Snow Valley Road.
Deputies were dispatched to the parking lot of the tubing area in reference to a caller observing vehicle occupants who showed signs of impairment, noting the vehicle was attempting to leave the parking lot with the trunk open.
While deputies were speaking with vehicle occupants, they observed an odor of burnt marijuana and alcohol. Castilla and Bertison were passengers in the vehicle.
The driver of the vehicle passed field sobriety tests conducted by deputies. During a search of the vehicle, deputies located marijuana shake, a jar containing suspected marijuana and an open can of beer. Castilla claimed ownership of the suspected marijuana in the jar, and Bertison claimed ownership of the open can of beer.
Deputies also located a Xanax pill in the vehicle, and charges are pending against the driver, who said she had a prescription for the medication.
