An employee at a Delaware County pizza shop was arrested for allegedly selling marijuana while she was on the job.
Brandy Nicole Weldon, 36, was arrested and charged with manufacturing, delivering and/or being in possession of a controlled substance and other related offenses.
Weldon worked as an assistant manager at Seasons Pizza on the 300 block of W. Lancaster Avenue in Wayne. Police received information stating she was selling marijuana during her shifts.
Police launched an investigation during which Weldon sold marijuana to two undercover officers on Nov. 11 and Tuesday, according to investigators. Police say Weldon walked outside the shop, sold the drugs to the officers and then returned to work.
After they spotted her selling marijuana to the undercover officer Tuesday, officers entered the pizza shop around 5 p.m. and took Weldon into custody, according to officials. Police say they found marijuana inside her purse at the time of her arrest.
The Health Department in Radnor shut down Seasons Pizza so that the store could be sanitized. Officials say there are concerns that Weldon may have been handling both the marijuana and the food at the restaurant at the same time.
“She’s dealing with food that’s going to your and my kids, your or my mom and dad, and that’s unacceptable, but especially in Radnor Township,” said one of the undercover officers.
