Sumter County deputies have arrested three men on charges linked to the possession of more than $100,000 worth of crack cocaine. The arrests were made yesterday at a hotel in York. Officers say more than two pounds of crack cocaine was found at the site. Sumter County Sheriff Johnny Hatter says the arrests were made after an undercover investigation.

"It's not something that happens overnight," says Hatter. "You have to get in with them and get to know them, and there's a lot of work involved for this term."

Charged in the case is 34-year-old Roy Willingham and 28-year-old Anthony Haire, both from York and 33-year-old Robert Stephens from Livingston.
