Execution of a recent search warrant in South Bend resulted in the confiscation of fentanyl, methamphetamine, marijuana, alcohol, tobacco products containing Michigan tax stamps, paraphernalia, a gun and approximately $18,000 in cash.

The warrant was executed on Friday, March 19, at a retailer in the 1400 block of Portage Avenue.

The warrant was the result of a six week-long investigation that began with a complaint alleging the location was selling alcoholic beverages without holding a permit through the ATC.

The complaint also indicated the possibility of illegal narcotic sales taking place at the business location.

The execution of the warrant was the result of the combined work of the Strategic Focus Unit and the Indiana State Excise Police.
