BLOOMSBURG - An Atlas women being brought back to prison on a probation violation had a dozen heroin-soaked cotton balls hidden inside her bra, police told a local newspaper.
Police said Kylee Wargo, 23, was seen "fidgeting with her bra" by a corrections office at Columbia County Prison on July 17, The (Bloomsburg) Press Enterprise reported in Saturday's edition.
After denying she was hiding something, a strip search revealed 10 to 12 brownish cotton balls in a cigarette wrapper in her bra, the paper reported.
The story said a needle could be used to extract heroin from the cotton balls.
Wargo and her boyfriend, Daniel Growhoski, 21, of Mount Carmel, had recently been charged with burglary at 62 E. Main St., during which they are accused of taking gaming systems, a laptop computer, a TV and other items.
Wargo, who was involved a theft at a Knoebels Amusement Resort recycling building in 2010, was still on a four-year probation for that incident.
Wago is facing counts of heroin possession and having contraband and paraphernalia at the prison.
