complaints employees were selling marijuana while working at Mayflower in Washington.

The Beaufort County Sheriff's Office says it conducted surveillance and witnessed one of the employees selling marijuana in the Mayflower parking lot.

Authorities identify that individual as 32 year old Pedro Villalta. Another Mayflower employee, 24 year old Jesus Baza, and two others who don't work there, 21 year-old Fermin Burgo and 20 year old Leiby Medrano, were also arrested.

All four live together at 205 Pineview Drive.

Authorities say they confiscated a total of 180 grams of marijuana.

I have eaten at the Mayflower in Washington several times. It's a great place to eat and the people are very courteous and conciderate. Love the place.

Do you honestly think this doesn't happen in Greenville too?..Probably more so...Drugs being sold in parking lots is everywhere and anybody with any sense would not condemn the restaurant unless the owner is running a drug ring out of it! The food there is good and the prices are too. I hope they make a go of it. Cliff's is so overpriced.They need somebody to give them a run for their money. By the way, anybody took a gander at what does the cooking at Cliff's lately? That'll make you want to run!
