San Francisco police confirmed Friday a recent drug bust that resulted in two arrests and the seizure of cocaine, marijuana and more than $5,000 in cash.

According to a press release from the San Francisco Police Department, plainclothes officers assigned to the Tenderloin station were conducting a drug investigation last Sunday afternoon at approximately 3:41 p.m. when they observed two individuals, a man and a woman, selling suspected drugs from their vehicle in the 100 block of Eddy Street.

Officers had reasonable suspicion to arrest the two suspects, 39-year-old Jason Bell and 46-year-old Ibtihaj Hammond, both residents of San Francisco. They were both booked into the San Francisco County Jail on charges of cocaine base for sale, marijuana for sale and criminal conspiracy.

Police seized over 28 grams of suspected cocaine and over $5,000. Although there were arrests, this is an open and active investigation. Anyone with information is asked to contact SFPD at 1-415-575-4444 or text a tip to TIP411 and begin the message with “SFPD.”
