Norwood Police arrested two men early this morning after an officer found them sleeping in a vehicle parked in the middle of the road, police spokesman Kevin Grasso said in an email statement this afternoon.

Ryan T. Colbert, 18, of West Roxbury, and Timothy P. Hennigan, 20, of Norwood, were both arrested on charges of possession with intent to distribute class B and D drugs.

At approximately 1:35 a.m. Norwood Officer Gregory Shore observed a car parked in the middle of the road on St. Joseph Avenue, Grasso said. Two male subjects were sleeping inside the car and the officer viewed a bag with pills in it on the lap of one of the subjects.

"The officer woke up the subjects once back-up arrived," Grasso said. "It was learned through the investigation that the pills were Oxycodone. marijuana and drug paraphernalia along with cash was seized as evidence."

Both subjects were scheduled to be arraigned Tuesday at Dedham District Court.
