Fulton barbershop closed after drug bust, allegation of injury

Yonnie’s Barber Shop on Government Road is closed:

Tony Dunaway, 45, faces a host of drug charges after search warrants show a confidential informant bought heroin from the barber shop owner several times.

Investigators are checking to see if the stylists were even licensed after one of them allegedly injured a young girl.

[…]

Lt. Dan Minton with Richmond Police says the barber shop is under further investigation to see if the stylists had their licenses. However, the investigation began with complaints not about hair, but drugs. According to a search warrant, police used an informant to buy heroin from Dunaway in a back room of the barber shop three times.

That haircut injury was gruesome. I think rule number one of running a drug front business is to pick something you won’t fuck up.

Im sure the reason this place was shut down is because he was cutting in on the federally run methadone clinics. We have Methadone clinics near schools, and wait, the target audience for these clinics are people who are currently using? I’m sure this barber’s hours were better than the clinics. Or wait he probably served the clinics customers when they were closed….

typical clinic hours:

CLINIC HOURS:
Monday – Friday 5:00 am – 1:30 pm*

Saturday 6:00 am – 10:00 am

Closed on Sunday

*Dispensing window closes Monday through Friday at 1:00 pm.
