CIRCLEVILLE – On April 29, 2020, Personnel from the Circleville Police Department again removed dangerous drugs and a loaded gun from the streets of our community. Three drug related traffic stops were made simultaneously followed by the execution of a search warrant at 333 Walnut St. In total today, we recovered a loaded .40 caliber handgun, scales, drug paraphernalia, drug abuse instruments, scales, cash, prescription pills, marijuana, and a bag of white powder possibly containing fentanyl. K-9 Sergey again played a vital role in today’s efforts to eradicate drugs and dangerous/ illegal guns from our neighborhoods.
These incidents are a direct result of an ongoing investigation by the Circleville Police Department stemming from drug overdoses in our community. The names and criminal charges will be released in the near future.
As always, residents who wish to help us with the drug problem in our community are encouraged to use The Circleville Police Department Anonymous Drug Tip Hotline at 740-477-DRUG (3784). The Anonymous Drug Tip Hotline is a voicemail system, which is accessible 24 hours a day. Callers are encouraged to leave as much information as possible.
