A Broward Sheriff’s Office sergeant was arrested at Miami International Airport on Tuesday on drug-related charges.

Reports are that 35-year-old Bryan Vidal Lorenzo has been charged with possession of a controlled substance and importing a controlled substance into Florida, as stated in an arrest report.

Discovery of suspected MDMA

It was reported that Sergeant Lorenzo was arrested after Customs and Border Protection officers suspected he was carrying MDMA, commonly known as Ecstasy, upon his arrival at the airport. 

The illicit substance was reportedly discovered concealed within a cargo pocket of his ski pants.

Following his arrest, Lorenzo was taken into custody and subsequently booked into jail. 

He was slated to appear in bond court on Wednesday.

Lorenzo was hired in June 2013 and has been placed on administrative leave without pay, according to Broward Sheriff’s Office officials.
