Suspicious Vehicle Call Leads to Drug Charges Against Teens

Two local teens that were busted last year after talking about a party on Twitter are facing drug charges in court next month after being arrested earlier this week on more drug charges.

Paige Graef, 19, pictured left, of Monadnock Lane in Merrimack, and Elizabeth Shambo, 19, of Mallard Point Road in Merrimack, were both arrested on May 18, 2015, on possession of a controlled drug and possession of prescription drugs without a prescription.

According to a report, police were called to Crosswoods Path Boulevard for a report of a suspicious vehicle in a parking lot. When officers arrived, they located the vehicle and spoke to both Graef and Shambo and allegedly “made observations of drug use and upon further investigation found both to be in possession of marijuana,” according to Sgt. Joseph Goodridge.

Both were arrested and transported to headquarters where they were processed and later, released on $2,500 personal recognizance bail. According to the report, both are due in court on June 2.

Along with the party charge from last year, Shambo was also arrested in 2013 for domestic criminal mischief, according to a post on Patch. Graef was also arrested last spring on a marijuana charge.
