TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — A wanted Citrus County woman was apprehended after deputies found her hiding inside of a couch.

The sheriff’s office began searching for Stacy Usher, 39, earlier this month.

She was wanted on a parole violation for the sale of fentanyl and unlawful use of a two-way communication device.

While searching Usher’s home on Tuesday, deputies discovered she was hiding inside of her couch. She was taken into custody.

“Usher is registered as a convicted felon in Citrus, Manatee and Pasco County,” the sheriff’s office wrote in a Facebook post earlier this month. “She has a history of fraud, grand theft, and obtaining property by a worthless check.”
