Former NASCAR driver pleads innocent on drug charges

Aaron Fike, former NASCAR driver, pleaded innocent to a heroin charge on September 19.


Fike and his crew and fianc�e Cassandra Davidson were both suspended from NASCAR races following their arrest last July 7 at an Ohio amusement park carrying heroine and drug tools, according to the police. Police further claimed they found Fike and Davidson in a parked vehicle with bloody napkins, syringes, a spoon and black tar heroin.


A grand jury charged Fike of possession of heroin, a felony, and possession of drug abuse instruments.


If convicted of heroine possession, Fike will serve a sentence of up to one year imprisonment. The court allowed Fike to remain free after his court appearance Wednesday in Warren County, northeast of Cincinnati.


A Craftsman Truck Series driver and contender for Rookie of the Year honors, Fike, 24, had been slated to compete a week after his arrest at the Kentucky Speedway. At the time of his arrest, Fike ranked eighth in the point standings.


Meanwhile, Davidson pleaded guilty of the same charges last August 23. Her sentence will be released on October 11.
