A Springfield man accused of overdosing four times since March 2016 was indicted in Clark County Common Pleas Court this week.

James B. Wicks, 59, was indicted on counts of possession of cocaine and aggravated possession of drugs

Springfield Police Division officers were called at about 3 p.m. on Dec. 15 to a home in the 900 block of Cypress Street about Wicks, who had allegedly overdosed on heroin. Wicks also had an active warrant, the report said.

After Wicks was transported to Springfield Regional Medical Center, officers found a syringe at the scene with blood inside of it. After being taken into custody, police searched Wicks and found a plastic container with a white rock inside. Wicks told police it was cocaine, the report said.

Wicks did not fall under the Good Samaritan Law because he had overdosed previously three times between March and October of 2016 and is also on probation, officers wrote.

The law offers protection from prosecution for those calling for assistance with overdoses if they haven’t reached a certain number of overdoses in their lives.
