According to a Tuesday news release, "street-level distribution amounts" of drugs were found in the home, including MDMA, methamphetamine (both powder and liquid) and fentanyl.
In addition to the drugs, the following weapons were seized:
- A white, semi-automatic .22 rifle;
- A sawed-off shotgun with a defaced serial number;
- Ammunition, including .22 and shotgun; and
- A prohibited rifle magazine.
Police arrested two people from the home.
