DELPHOS — In recent months, law enforcement officials learned of an alleged “drug house” at 317 N. Bredeick St. in Delphos. Agents from the West Central Ohio Crime Task Force then began an investigation into activities at the residence, which culminated Friday at approximately 10:15 a.m. when task force members, along with the Allen County Sheriff’s Office Swat Team, served a search warrant at the house.

Found inside the residence were the following items that were seized for evidentiary purposes;

• A small quantity of suspected marijuana
• A moderate quantity of suspected pharmaceutical pills
• A moderate quantity of suspected drug paraphernalia, including hypodermic syringes
• A moderate quantity of U.S. currency

Five adults and one small child were found inside the residence. One of the adults, a 21-year-old male whose name is being withheld until he is formally charged, is suspected of illegal drug sales originating from the residence.

The other four adults found in the home, who are family members of the suspect, have been cleared of any wrongdoing.
