ADEL, GA --
After raiding a housing project apartment located at 600 Lane Street in Adel, Adel police officials have arrested 28-year-old Adam Jamar Robinson who was out on parole at the time of his arrest.

Authorities say that an investigation was launched on Robinson after receiving a citizen's complaint. The investigation led to search warrants being issued. Officers entered Robinson's apartment Thursday morning around 7:30 AM.

Authorities found firearms, crack cocaine valued at $2,000, marijuana valued at $3,000, stolen electronics, $800 in cash and a three-year-old child. Officials say the child has been released to a relative of Robinson's.
