At 1:22 a.m. Wednesday, a midnight shift officer stopped a vehicle and observed drug paraphernalia. The officer was then given a location where active meth was cooking in the Canterbury Apartments complex, according to a press release from the Warsaw Police Department.
Officers located the apartment and obtained a search warrant. Upon entry into the apartment, the occupants attempted to flush the lab contents down the toilet. Multiple items related to the manufacture of meth were recovered.
Five subjects were detained and transported to the WPD for additional questioning. The subjects were then transported and booked into the Kosciusko County Jail.
Aaron Case, 19, of 1018 Pike Shore Drive, Warsaw, was charged for manufacturing meth, possession of meth and visiting a common nuisance.
Stanley Cripps, 25, of 234 W. State St., Etna Green, was charged for manufacturing meth, possession of meth, possession of precursor and visiting a common nuisance.
Daniel Holbrook, 20, of 1113 E. Fort Wayne St., Warsaw, was charged with manufacturing meth, possession of meth, possession of precursor, visiting a common nuisance and dumping controlled substance waste.
Sergei Marthaler, 21, of 133 Rattington Circle, Warsaw, was charged with possession of meth, possession of precursor and visiting a common nuisance.
Terry Stearns, 20, of 111 Rattington Circle, Warsaw, was charged with unlawful sale of precursors and visiting a common nuisance.
Information from this case led to another active meth lab investigation at Suburban Acres Mobile Home Park on the north side of Warsaw.
Narcotics officers went to Lot 108 Suburban Acres and located two subjects at the mobile home. A search warrant led to the discovery of 3 grams of meth and over 1 gram of crystal meth, along with a one-pot meth lab and additional precursors.
William Marsillett, 55, and Kira Tuttle, 33, both of 3699 N. CR 175E, Warsaw, were both arrested by WPD.
Marsillett was charged with dealing meth, possessing meth and maintaining a common nuisance.
Tuttle was charged with possession with intent to distribute and maintaining a common nuisance.
More arrests stemming from this investigation are probable, according to the press release.
WPD was assisted by the Warsaw Police Narcotics Unit, Kosciusko County Drug Task Force, Indiana State Police Meth Suppression Unit, Winona Lake Police Department and the Kosciusko County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office.
