13 July 2022 News
A joint investigation involving the Lake Winnebago Area MEG Unit and Sheriff’s Offices from Fond du Lac and Winnebago Counties led to the arrest of an out-of-state individual and confiscation of a large quantity of illegal drugs. The investigation occurred last week and culminated in a traffic stop on U.S. Highway 151 in Fond du Lac County. K9 units indicated there were drugs in the vehicle. Seized during the stop was 10 pounds of high-grade marijuana, three-quarters of a pound of high potency THC wax, over seven pounds of THC edibles, and quantities of suspected heroin, LSD, psilocybin mushrooms, ketamine, oxycodone, over $21,000 of U.S. currency and a loaded 9 millimeter handgun. The vehicle was also seized and the driver arrested on drug and weapon charges. Fond du Lac County Sheriff Ryan Waldschmidt says, “Time and time again our deputies witness the devastating effects of drug distribution and use in our community, and the associated crimes that often time come with the drug trade.”
