Former Buckeye Ray Small Arrested on Felony Drug Charges

Ray Small, former Buckeye wide receiver from 2006-2009, was arrested last night in Franklin County and faces over 30 years in jail after getting busted with drugs and guns.

According to the Franklin County prosecutor, Ron O’Brien, Columbus Police raided Small’s Ferris Road apartment in April and found drugs and guns. Officials say they seized nearly $4,500 in cash, digital scales used in weighing drugs, over 400 Oxycodone and Alprazolam (Xanax) pills, and heroin. Along with the pills, police also recovered a .380 semi-automatic handgun and an SKS assault rifle. According to the prosecutor, Small no longer lives at the apartment, but a Detroit, Michigan man, Anthony Jones, was in the apartment at the time of the raid and was also included in the indictment with charges of trafficking and possession of Oxycodone. O’Brien says if Small is convicted on all drug and gun charges, he could face 33 years in prison.
