REPORT: One jailed on drug charges, another facing warrants after overdose

Bryson Nation

Bond was denied for one suspect, and another is facing warrants for drug possession after an overdose incident in the McDonald’s parking lot in Rockmart, according to reports.

Rockmart Police charged Bryson Nation, 21, of a Rockmart-area address, on April 29 around 7 a.m. after he and Brian Jacob McBroom, 22, were found in an SUV in the parking lot at McDonald’s on Nathan Dean Parkway in Rockmart. Employees at the restaurant called previously after a report of an overdose happening in the SUV.

Nation and McBroom claimed everything was fine, but police suspected otherwise after seeing McBroom’s pupils and believed he was heavily intoxicated on a narcotic. The two claimed that someone else had smoked marijuana in the car previously, but that none of the drugs in the vehicle was theirs.

Police ultimately got the pair out of the SUV, searched it and found suspected heroin, a plastic bag containing oxycodone pills, and small straws commonly used to take the narcotics.

Nation was alleged in the report to have ultimately admitted that McBroom suffered and overdose in the car and he was performing CPR to bring him back, but woke up before police arrived.

McBroom wasn’t given any Narcan at the time, and had only taken a single Oxycodone at a 30 mg strength, per the report.

Nation was taken to jail and denied bond, and though the report stated that McBroom was transported to jail as well, no information was available about his status in custody.

Warrants are being sought for his arrest on felony drug charges.

Nation remained in jail on felony charges for possession of heroin and possession of a Schedule I Controlled Substance.
