FAYETTE COUNTY, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- Two women are in jail after deputies went to a house that had a sign warning that "snitches" were going to be searched.

April Lavender, 38, of Oak Hill, was charged with possession of a controlled substance with the intent to deliver.

Deputies went to the home to follow up on a complaint of joyriding after Lavender's grandmother called deputies saying she had let her granddaughter (Lavender) use her car but she didn't bring it back when she said she would.

When deputies got to the home they saw the sign, which led deputies to think drugs were likely being sold from the house on Central Avenue in Oak Hill.

The sign reads "Due to snitches, everyone entering my home is subject to being searched. All cell phones and drinks will be left outside. If you're not a snitch, it won't offend you if I search you."

The house was searched by deputies and heroin and meth were found inside, as well as other substances believed to be narcotics.

"Who would put something up like that other than someone doing drugs?" said Fayette County Deputy Chief Mike Fridley.

"When you post a note, you never know who's gonna knock on your door, so it just lead to a good arrest by deputy sheriffs."

Another woman at the house was charged with joyriding.

"While drug investigations often require a great deal of time and effort, sometimes the criminals make our job pretty easy," said Sheriff Steve Kessler. "If someone posts a sign on their front door about searching 'snitches,' it's a pretty safe bet that there are illegal drugs being sold out of that location."

Lavender was taken to Southern Regional Jail. His bond was set at $10,000.
