Police have

filed additional charges against a man accused of selling drugs and alcohol

to youngsters in Peachtree City.

Paul Hagan

III, 39, was charged last week with two more counts of contributing to

the delinquency of a minor after police interviewed two more juveniles

who he allegedly sold the goods to.

Peachtree City

Police Chief James Murray said Hagan sold the majority of the contraband

from his home on Swanson Ridge. Some of the alcohol was sold at Brandon's

Package Store, and some of the sales were near a playground on the south

end of the Smokerise subdivision in some cases, police said.

"I think

we can put up an out-of-business sign up at his house," Murray said.

Hagan was originally

charged with selling drugs within 1,000 feet of a park in addition to

selling a controlled substance, possession of a schedule II drug and three

counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

According to

warrants for his most recent arrest, Hagan sold one of the latest victims

drugs such as methodone and xanax in addition to alcohol and cigarettes.

Hagan sold alcohol and cigarettes only to the second latest victim, warrants

said.

Police have

identified a total of five victims so far and are trying to identify others,

Murray said.

We're still

working the case," Murray said. "We think there are more victims."
