Four people arrested following drug bust in Wisconsin

WISCONSIN — Four individuals were arrested May 29 following drug busts at two homes in Oshkosh and two in Milwaukee, according to the Oshkosh Police Department.

The arrests followed a months-long investigation that led to the seizure of three handguns, a variety of illegal drugs, and approximately $5,000 in cash.

Among the substances recovered were 1.58 pounds of methamphetamine, 23.1 grams of fentanyl, 117.1 grams of cocaine, 2.7 grams of ecstasy, and 40 grams of marijuana.

The suspects, ranging in age from 35 to 44, face a variety of charges.

A 44-year-old was arrested on suspicion of manufacturing and delivering methamphetamine, possession with intent to deliver cocaine, and maintaining a drug-trafficking place.

A 35-year-old man was taken into custody on suspicion of maintaining a drug-trafficking place.

Two others — a 40-year-old and a 41-year-old — were arrested on outstanding warrants through probation and parole, with the 41-year-old also facing a possession of methamphetamine charge.

The Oshkosh Police Department’s Vice and Narcotics Unit, Criminal Investigation Division, and SWAT Team executed the search warrants in Oshkosh.

Additional search warrants were executed at two Milwaukee residences tied to the 35-year-old suspect, with assistance from the Milwaukee Police Department and the Lake Winnebago Area MEG Unit.

Police say the investigation remains ongoing.
