A search warrant was obtained for the residence. Upon execution of the warrant, officers found approximately 2 ounces of cocaine, numerous paraphernalia items and documents associated with the dealing of cocaine.

The Kosciusko County Drug Task Force was assisted in the investigation by other state and federal agencies, including the Kosciusko County SWAT Team, Warsaw Police Department, Kosciusko County Prosecutor's Office and the KCSD.

More arrests and indictments are anticipated.
