(KNZA)--A Horton man was arrested over the weekend on drug and firearm charges following the execution of a search warrant.

According to a report from Brown County Sheriff John Merchant, a deputy responded to the Kickapoo Reservation shortly after 6:30 Saturday evening on a report of a 911 hangup.

Upon investigation, Merchant said it was discovered that a small child was playing with a cell phone and had accidentally placed the call.

While the deputy was at the residence, Merchant said he had probable cause to believe illegal drug activity was present. He applied for and was granted a search warrant for the premises.

Upon serving the search warrant, 43-year-old Jeremy Simon was arrested on charges of Possession of Marijuana, Possession of Drug Paraphernalia and Felon in Possession of a Firearm.

Simon was booked into the Brown County Jail.
