She's old enough to collect social security. But Prichard police say she's still working the presciption drug circuit.

Police arrested 65-year-old Marvely Blackwell Saturday afternoon in the parking lot of the Burger King on Hwy 90 in Tillmans Corner. Narcotics officers say she was in the process of selling a large amount of Loritab and Soma pills.

Police believe Blackwell has been selling the pills for at least six months. The question is where she got them. Loritab is a pain killer and Soma is a muscle relaxer. Both must be prescribed by a doctor.

More arrests are expected once police determine who supplied Blackwell with the pills.
