Molino Man Facing Drugs, Weapons Charges

February 19, 2023

A Molino man is facing drug and weapons charges after allegedly running from a deputy at a fast food restaurant.

Hughlett Ray Mumaw was charged with possession of cocaine, possession of a controlled substance with a prescription (methamphetamines) and possession of a concealed firearm.

When Mumaw saw a deputy in a marked patrol unit approaching the Checkers on Pace Boulevard, Mumaw ran behind the business, according to an Escambia County Sheriff’s Office arrest report.

According to deputies, Mumaw had 3.4 grams of cocaine and a small purple bag that contained methamphetamines, a loaded 9mm handgun, scales, plastic baggies and his wallet with his Florida identification.

Mumaw was booked into the Escambia County Jail where he was being held without bond due to a probation violation charge.

Deputies noted in their report that Mumaw is not a convicted felon.

    Drug addiction is killing our country. Our people are deteriorating. The demand causes the supply of illegal drugs and illegal immigrants carrying the drugs across the southern border states and gulf. If people would stop their addiction and stop the demand that would solve part of the border crisis. Then there is the health issue. Look at pictures of the people taking those drugs. They all look older than they really are. It’s very sad for them and for our country. I hope and pray that this man and all who are addicted to these death drugs can clean and detox their bodies and minds to become better productive citizens for themselves and their families.
