A Roanoke Rapids woman was charged Thursday after police responded to a hotel room on a possible drug overdose call.

Roanoke Rapids police Chief Bobby Martin said officers responding to the call discovered 39-year-old Crystal Peffer unresponsive on the bed with a 3-year-old child.

Martin said officers were preparing to administer Narcan to Peffer when she became alert.

Martin said officers noticed drug paraphernalia in the room and .10 grams of fentanyl on the dresser within reach of the child.

Peffer faces charges of child abuse; resist, delay, and obstruct for not following officer directions; and possession of drug paraphernalia.

She received a $3,000 bond and March 17 court date.

The child was removed and taken to a hospital for observation. The department of social services was alerted to the situation and the child is currently in the care of a responsible family member.

“We are very thankful we received this call from someone concerned for the child’s health along with the mother’s,” Martin said.
