Methamphetamines removed from home in Nevada
Methamphetamines were seized from a Nevada home Thursday
night after a search warrant served by the Sheriff’s Office and the Nevada
Police Department. Sheriff Jason Mosher said his Office received information
through the C-Net drug task force of a possible on Oak Street in Nevada.
Sheriff’s Deputies searched the area and found the location they believed was
being used. A search warrant executed by the Sheriff’s Office, C-Net Drug Task
Force and the Nevada Police Department led to the seizure of what is believed
to be multiple bags of methamphetamines and scales indicating
distribution. The suspected drugs will
be sent to the Missouri State Crime lab but Sheriff Jason Mosher said the type
of methamphetamines found was not the crystal meth that has been showing up
lately, “the crystal meth we have been finding has been coming from places like
Kansas City, but the type we found at this residence is home made.” The Sheriff
also said they have some evidence indicating that a lab had been in the
residence not long before the warrant was served, “the chemical smell in the
air was still strong enough we had to wear masks before entering the house.”
The Sheriff said there were still some items left behind indicating that a lab
had been in the residence and certified lab technicians responded from both
C-Net and the Nevada Police Department. Sheriff Mosher said they do have
suspects in the case but have not released any names pending the filing of
formal charges.
