A Paducah woman has been arrested after an investigation into selling prescription pills.

The McCracken County Sheriff's Department Drug Division got a tip about drug activity on Tuesday from someone who had seen text messages about Methadone pills.

Detectives got a look at the messages and identified the sender as 63-year-old Cheryl Groat. They set up a deal to buy 60 pills at a business on Cairo Road. Detectives said that when they met Groat about 8:30 pm, they seized more than 60 pills from her, and she reportedly admitted to coming to sell them.

Groat was charged with 1st degree trafficking in more than 10 doses of a controlled substance and taken to McCracken County Jail.
