FDLE agents, with the assistance of Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agents, arrested Denzel Rashad Scott, 24, and Kathryn Lynn Barrow, 51, both of Melbourne, for one count each of trafficking fentanyl and possession of methamphetamine. Scott was also charged with possession of a concealed firearm and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
