Last Tuesday in Colma, what began as a routine check on a misdemeanor violation escalated to a felony arrest when local police responded to a call about a man allegedly smoking narcotics inside a business on the unit block of Colma Boulevard. The incident was outlined in a statement from the Colma Police Department, stating that officers were dispatched around 4:00 PM.
Upon arrival, officers encountered a suspect, later identified as Enoch Marsh, a 48-year-old from Santa Cruz, who matched the description provided. It turned out that Marsh was on searchable probation from a neighboring city and was wanted on a no-bail felony warrant by an outside agency, the Colma Police Department indicated in their recent social media post detailing the arrest. Marsh was immediately detained, and further investigation led officers to discover drug paraphernalia and a white powdery substance believed to be fentanyl during a probation search.
The substance and paraphernalia found on Marsh resulted in charges of possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia being added to his legal woes. After the arrest, the suspect was booked into the San Mateo County Jail.
