A search warrant was executed at a Bowie residence on April 19 that lead to a pair of arrests plus the seizure of liquid and crystal methamphetamine, drug paraphernalia and two firearms.
Bowie Police Sgt. Bob Blackburn said on Tuesday information was received about possible illegal drug activity at 508 Orchard that included large amounts of meth being distributed and kept at the home along with firearms.
The preliminary investigation led to credible information to obtain the warrants, said the officer, which were served the same day by the police and deputies from the Montague County Sheriff’s office. Blackburn said 18 months ago police executed a warrant at the same location where there were multiple arrests on various charges.
Officers recovered approximately 40 grams of crystal and liquid methamphetamine, drug paraphernalia indicative of distribution such as scales and two working firearms, a 410 and .22 rifle with ammunition.
Blackburn said the street value of the meth was about $2,400.
