Amarillo Police investigating possible narcotics activity found exactly what they were looking for on Friday.

The authorities went to a room at the Estess Motel at 3511 Amarillo Boulevard.  They checked three tenants in one of the rooms for wants and warrants.  The female tenant of the room, 26-year-old Kayla D'Nae Swaim was wanted for a misdemeanor warrant for possession of drug paraphernalia.

A male occupant of the room, 30-year-old Tabyron Jacobi Boxten was detained while an APD K-9 walked around his vehicle and alerted to narcotics inside.  Officers found a small amount of marijuana in the console.  A further search of Boxten allegedly revealed around 18 grams of meth in his clothes.  They also found a baggie with around 6 grams of meth on the bed inside the motel room.

Boxten and Swaim were both booked into Potter County.  A third person in the room was released and not charged.
