A search warrant was obtained for the residence, and Detectives from the Sheriff’s Office and Cass County Drug Enforcement Team conducted that search warrant last Wednesday, January 16, 2019.

Two suspects have been arrested on charges of burglary, possession of stolen property, and criminal enterprise.
