Officers Seize Oxycodone, Cash From County Man

A Crawford County man was arrested Dec. 13 after a joint investigation by law enforcement led to the seizure of Oxycodone and $3,000 in cash.

He allegedly admitted to selling a half ounce of methamphetamine prior to the Lake Area Narcotics Enforcement Group (LANEG), Crawford County Sheriff’s Department and Cuba Police arriving at his home in Cuba.

Law enforcement seized 22 Oxycodone pills that the man said he purchased for his wife, who had a toothache.

The man is on probation for threatening judicial staffers earlier this year. His threats prompted a shutdown of the Crawford County Courthouse in January.
