After a lengthy joint investigation with the DEA of a suspected illegal marijuana grow, the Deckerville Police executed several search warrants on multiple locations in Deckerville between February 19th and February 22.
This resulted in the arrest of a 46-year-old man from Deckerville and the seizure of illegally grown marijuana totalling about 70 plants, a large amount of grow equipment, along with over 50 firearms and a large amount of ammunition. Initial charges have been forwarded to the Sanilac County Prosecutor’s Office.
Deckerville Police were assisted in the investigation by the DEA, Sterling Heights Police Department, Sandusky Police Department, Sanilac County DTF, Sanilac County Sheriff’s Office, Deckerville Fire Department, and the ATF.
Village Police Chief Fred Ameel expressed his gratitude “for the law enforcement partnerships both at the local and federal level involved and all who are committed to keeping our communities safe.”
