A tip off to police ended up with a bust of two pounds of cocaine, some illegal firearms and $10,000 in cash.

Deputies with the Volusia County Sheriff's Office say they showed up to a home at 939 Madison Avenue around 8:45am to answer the tip, and rolled up to an active drug deal in front of the property.

The customer, who was identified as 53-year-old Charlie Damon, saw the cops roll up on the car he was sititing in, and threw the bags of cocaine at the drug dealer, 47-year-old Bobby Johnson, in a great try at getting the return for his purchase.
