Delaware State Police have arrested a Wilmington man and are searching for two others accused of smuggling drugs and contraband into the James T. Vaughn Correctional Center in Smyrna.

Troopers said 36-year-old Shamar Clark, of Wilmington, was arrested Monday on multiple felony drug and contraband charges. Police are also seeking 35-year-old Charles Chambers, of Wilmington, and 31-year-old Jalen Hubbard, of Dover, who remain at large.

The investigation began July 23 after correctional officers found drugs hidden inside a couch delivered to be reupholstered by Delaware Correctional Industries, an inmate work program. Officers discovered more than a kilogram of marijuana and THC edibles, methamphetamine, K2-laced papers, gabapentin pills, suboxone strips, two cell phones and 53 USB drives.
