(KNZA)--The Thursday night execution of a search warrant at a Hiawatha residence led to the arrest of five on drug possession charges, primarily related to methamphetamine.

That's according to a release from Brown County Sheriff John Merchant, who says the search was initiated by the Brown County Sheriff's Office Drug Task Force, around 10:15, at 404 South 3rd Street.

Arrested on possession of meth and possession of drug paraphernalia charges were four Hiawatha residents, 42-year-old Douglas Milford, 38-year-old Jessica Dominguez, 34-year-old Allicia Ramirez, and 63-year-old Leonard Stanley Bindel who, along with 46-year-old Robinson resident Anthony Tull, also faces a charge for obstruction.

Once in custody, all five were booked into the Brown County Jail.

According to Merchant, meth, marijuana, needles, syringes, scales, pipes, and other paraphernalia, were seized as evidence from the residence.

He adds, in the release, that “many hours went in the preparation, execution and follow up of the search warrant as well as casework.”

The Sac and Fox and Hiawatha Police assisted with the case.
