LAGRANGE - Police have raided a LaGrange night club owned by State Representative Carl Von Epps and found a small amount of marijuana and cocaine residue. <br>
<br>
No arrests have been made. <br>
<br>
Epps, a Democrat from LaGrange, has owned the club since 1977. It's only open three hours a week, Sundays from 1-4 a.m., and no alcohol or food is served. <br>
<br>
Epps says he was at the lobby door early Sunday morning collecting money and greeting customers when the police arrived. <br>
<br>
He says he wasn't doing anything illegal and that there were two off-duty police officers working security at the club. <br>
<br>
LaGrange police Sergeant Dale Strickland says a reliable confidential informant says customers were using drugs. <br>
<br>
Chief Lou Dekmar says he plans to review Strickland's report and other information about the incident.
