A student at East Chapel Hill High School is facing two felony charges in connection with multiple incidents on school grounds.
16-year-old Infinite Taylor, of Legion Road, was arrested last Wednesday after he was found with 2.6 grams of marijuana in his possession at East Chapel Hill High School.
Chapel Hill Police Lieutenant Josh Mecimore says another student alerted a security guard that Taylor had the marijuana, and Taylor was charged with felony possession with intent to sell and deliver marijuana.
Mecimore says Taylor was also charged with a felony larceny that occurred on campus just before Thanksgiving.
“That was related to an incident on November 24, also at East Chapel Hill,” Mecimore says, “where a laptop was stolen from a student and the suspect was found in the possession of the laptop shortly after it was taken.”
Mecimore says Taylor is also facing a misdemeanor charge for possession of stolen goods in connection with the stolen laptop.
Taylor was scheduled to make his first appearance in Orange County Court on Monday morning.
