SNOW HILL - A convicted drug dealer was sentenced to 10 years in prison Nov. 15 after being found guilty of cocaine possession with intent to distribute.

Maryland State Police arrested Tony Nathaniel Harmon, 27, in March. At the time of his arrest, he exited his still-moving vehicle and fled on foot. Troopers eventually caught him after a short chase. Police found a large plastic bag containing three smaller, individually-wrapped plastic bags containing crack cocaine.

Harmon never placed his car in park before exiting, and the vehicle eventually collided with the southbound rail guard on Rt. 113. A closer inspection of his vehicle also produced more drugs. Police later learned that his drivers license had been suspended and revoked.

Harmon's 10-year sentence was influenced by his criminal history. In November 2007, a sheriff's deputy was doing a pat-down on Harmon, who had been caught on a warrant check, when Harmon assaulted the deputy and tried to get hold of his gun.

Police later found crack cocaine and marijuana on him. He eventually was sentenced in a plea deal to two years in jail for crack cocaine possession.
