Devon K. Chavis, 30, was sitting in a car on the grounds of the college on Aug. 17, 2007, when the officer saw him hand something to a man who walked up to him.
The man on foot ran away when he saw the squad car approach. Chavis tried to drive off down Mill Road, but the officer stopped him, authorities said.
Chavis gave the officer three different accounts of why he was on the college grounds, authorities said.An Edison police officer arrived and confronted Chavis with the other officer. Chavis appeared under the influence of narcotics, stuttering and giving incoherent answers, authorities said.After they asked him to step out of his car, they saw a plastic bag sticking out of the back of his shorts, authorities said.The bag contained several vials of crack and powder cocaine, authorities said.
Chavis was indicted in October on two drug charges. He faced up to five years in prison before joining the Drug Court program at Middlesex County Courthouse in November. He failed the monitoring and probation-like program and did not show for a court hearing in June.Chavis is 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighs about 260 pounds. He has several tattoos including one each on his chest and back that read "Thugs R Us" and a tattoo on his right arm of a mouse.His last listed addresses were on the first block of Krumb Street in Sayreville and the 600 block of West First Avenue in Roselle.
