Clyde man faces multiple drug trafficking charges
TIFFIN — Following a three-month-long investigation into a Columbus-based drug trafficking ring with ties to Seneca and Sandusky counties, the Seneca County Sheriff’s office arrested a Clyde, Ohio, man on multiple counts of trafficking in drugs. Justice A. Slane, 26, was arrested Wednesday following the extensive investigation by the Seneca County Drug Task Force-METRICH Enforcement Unit into the trafficking of methamphetamine, cocaine, crack cocaine, and fentanyl. That agency was assisted by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration in Columbus and the Ottawa County Major Crimes Task Force. Over the course of the investigation, authorities confiscated approximately 11 pounds of methamphetamine, two kilograms of cocaine, four ounces of fentanyl, four ounces of crack cocaine, and three firearms. “The collaboration between all the local and federal agencies was instrumental to the success of this investigation. It’s always considered a ‘good day’ and a success when that many firearms and that amount of drugs were prevented from reaching the streets in our community,” said Chief Deputy Charles W. Boyer, unit coordinator.
