By Staff Report-

Police arrested three subjects after a two-week investigation into a theft-for-narcotics ring in Kosciusko County.

On Aug. 29, Kosciusko County Sheriff’s Department responded to a domestic dispute complaint on East Bucher Drive involving Amy Farmer, 35. Once deputies arrived, Amy was arrested for resisting arrest, criminal mischief and arson. Officers had noticed a burnt cargo trailer, which had been reported stolen. A search warrant was obtained for the property where other stolen items were located.

On Sept. 5, Scott Farmer, 39, was arrested for outstanding warrants. When he was interviewed by KCSD detectives, he admitted to stealing the burnt cargo trailer and trading the tools that were inside it for drugs, according to a KCSD news release. Scott also admitted to detectives to stealing three other trailers. This led detectives to a residence on South Main Street in Milford where Scott said some of the stolen items would be located.

A search warrant was obtained for this property where stolen items were located along with drug paraphernalia, a small meth lab and some firearms. Detectives were assisted on this search by the Milford Police Department, Kosciusko County Drug Task Force and the Indiana State Police Lab Team.

The discovery led KCSD to the residence of Allan Foyle, 45, on D6 Lane, Syracuse. A search warrant was obtained for Foyle’s residence, where officers located methamphetamine, drug paraphernalia and stolen property. Foyle was arrested for dealing methamphetamine and possession of stolen property.
