The Vernon County Sheriff’s Office announced late Friday, that the Missouri State Highway ...Patrol along with the Sheriff’s Office, C-Net Drug Task Force and the Nevada Police Department served a search warrant in Nevada that resulted in the seizure of a one pound brick of marijuana, one ounce of high grade marijuana and $6,150 in cash along with a semi auto handgun. An arrest was made shortly after the search warrant was served and Matthew J Sandoval was arrested on scene for possession with intent to distribute and taken to the county jail.
A warrant for Sandoval, 24 of Nevada was issued just a few hours later with a bond of $25,000 cash only. Sheriff Mosher said this was a good example of law enforcement working together to fight the drug problem in our community. “Everyone worked together and a lot was accomplished in just a short time. Drugs were taken out of Nevada that would have ended up on our streets.” Sandoval is expected to be arraigned in court as early as next week.
