Woman, 87, caught on tape selling crack

PENSACOLA, Florida (WALA) - An 87-year-old woman is accused of selling crack. And Escambia County, Florida investigators say the transaction was caught on tape.

Edna Hughes has lived next door to Ola Mae Agee for as long as she can remember.

"She's older than I am, but we're around in 80's, 81," said Huges.

Hughes had no idea what was allegedly going on next door, until Agee was booked in jail.

Deputies say an undercover investigator bought crack from the 87-year-old woman and the transaction was caught on tape.

The video shows the investigator walk up and knock on Agee's door. She opens it and it appears its to be nothing out of the ordinary for her.

"Hey, you gotta a 20?" the investigator asks.

The camera is shaky so deputies say you can't see Agee actually get the drugs out. However, if you look closely, investigators say Agee places the crack in the undercover deputy's left hand, and he gives her money with his right hand.

"You never know who's knocking at your door. We got video cameras up there, we're not stopping at her. We're moving on and hopefully we'll quit seeing 87-year-olds selling crack. But nothing surprises us anymore," said Sergeant Ted Roy with the Escambia County Sheriff's Office.

Agee was booked in the Escambia County Jail but has been released.
