One of the leaders of Black Lives Matter Seattle-King County has been arrested on almost a dozen drug and weapons charges after being granted clemency by former Washington Gov. Jay Inslee in 2019.
The Lynwood Times first reported the arrest of Percy Levy, 54 during a traffic stop by the Snohomish Regional Drug Task Force after a 16-month investigation.
After a warrant was served on the suspect’s home, officers found 2,818 grams of powder cocaine, 14.7 grams of rock cocaine, and 556 grams of fentanyl, enough to kill approximately 278,000, one-third the population of Snohomish County. Packaging material and a digital scale were also found, likely indicating distribution. A handgun was also located in the house.
He was charged with 11 Class B Felony charges, including two counts of unlawful possession of a firearm, possession of a stolen firearm, and eight separate counts of possession of controlled substances with an attempt to sell.
