A duo found sleeping in their vehicle at the Duck Pond by OU Department of Public Safety officers Tuesday morning are facing felony and misdemeanor drug charges.

An OUDPS officer approached a 1989 Chevrolet Pickup truck parked in the duck pond parking lot, 300 E. Brooks Street, at 2:30 a.m., according to police reports.

The occupants, Darryl Lee Williams, 43, and Megan Renee Berlier, 20, were questioned about their presence at the duck pond, according to a court affidavit.

During a background check on Williams, officers found he had three outstanding Cleveland County warrants and was immediately arrested.

Williams was in possession of a marijuana pipe and a syringe with residues of an illegal substance, according to court documents.

According to the affidavit, the pickup was then inventoried.

During the search of the vehicle, officers found syringes with clear liquid inside, empty syringes, an electronic scale, numerous small, coin-size baggies, a marijuana cigarette and three oxycontin pills.

Oxycontin, a Schedule II narcotic, is a legal substance used as a reliever for moderate to severe pain. Both individuals were taken to Cleveland County and the vehicle was impounded.

The Cleveland County District Attorney's office charged Williams and Berlier with one felony count of possession of a controlled substance within 1,000 ft. of a school, which is punishable by up to a year in prison.

Berlier is also charged with a misdemeanor charge of possession of drug paraphernalia and could face jail time of no more than one year, and a maximum fine of $1,000.

Williams is also charged with a misdemeanor count of unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia for the syringes and pipes found in his vehicle.

Williams and Berlier were released Wednesday on recognizance bonds.

No court date has been set for the two individuals.
