Chattanooga investigators have arrested two people they say supplied opioids to a man who died of an overdose in March.
The body of 29-year-old Dustin Lowrance was found in a motel room at 2440 Williams St. on March 8. An autopsy determined Lowrance died from a toxic level of opioids.
Investigators determined Monica Dunn, 29, and Wilmer Sherrard, 32, supplied the drugs and were present when Lowrance overdosed, police said in a news release Friday.
Monica DunnDunn and Sherrard are charged with second-degree murder in the death. Both are in custody on multiple unrelated charges and have other arrest warrants pending in Dade and Walker counties in North Georgia, the news release states.
This is not the first time this year local authorities brought murder charges in an overdose death.
