Drug Search in Bainbridge Leads to Arrest

One person was taken into custody Thursday as the result of search warrant in Bainbridge. 

Ross County Sheriff, George Lavender, says John Jason Free, 35,  was arrested after investigators discovered suspected heroin, fentanyl, cocaine, methamphetamines, guns, and cash at his home at 6811 U.S. Route 50. 

Sheriff Lavender says the arrest and subsequent drug seizures are the result of a lengthy investigation by the U.S. 23 Task Force. Chillicothe Police and Pickaway County law enforcement assisted in the case.

For now, Free faces a lone charge of Tampering with Evidence but further charges will be filed once lab results on the suspected drugs are complete.
