Meth and the flu

2020-03-13 19:25:23.633335+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Former Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum found in Miami Beach hotel room with suspected meth, police say:

Police say they were called to the Mondrian South Beach early Friday morning and found paramedics treating Travis Dyson, a 30-year-old Miami man, for an apparent heart attack. They say two other men were in the room: Aldo Mejias and Gillum.

Police say Gillum, who was not arrested, was too intoxicated to answer questions. An offense incident report says that officers found three clear plastic baggies of suspected crystal meth on the bed and floor.
