A probable cause search was conducted where troopers found the drugs and two loaded handguns, O’Bryon said.
Dustin Carpenter, 30, of Trotwood, is facing eight felony and misdemeanor charges that include aggravated trafficking in drugs and drug abuse, both second-degree felonies; having weapons under disability, a third-degree felony; and possession of drug abuse instruments, driving under suspension, drug abuse, failure to drive in marked lanes, and a seat belt violation — all misdemeanor charges.
The drug bust was the result of an increased presence of troopers in Middletown, according to O’Bryon.
