Early Monday morning, June 3, a joint operation between the local Drug Task Force and the Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI) found more than three pounds of various types of drugs in a local residence.
According to Salina Police Department (SPD) Capt. James Feldman, at about 9 a.m., the Drug Task Force and KBI served a search warrant at a home in Central Salina and found evidence of several types of drugs.
"In reference to a joint investigation, located was approximately a pound of hallucinogenic mushrooms, over two pounds of miscellaneous marijuana products, over three grams of suspected methamphetamine and a large quantity of paraphernalia," Feldman said. "Arrested was Kristoff Lindgren, a 33-year-old male of Salina."
Officers arrested Lindgren and requested charges for the distribution of a hallucinogenic, distribution of marijuana, distribution of methamphetamines, a count of use of a communication facility and the commission of a felony drug crime, unlawful drug proceeds, felony paraphernalia and a paraphernalia misdemeanor.
"Some cash was found, but I don't have those numbers right now," Feldman said. "It was a long day."
Feldman said the Drug Task Force and KBI had worked on this investigation for some time. Officers jointly continue to investigate the crime.
Salina Post will update the story as more information becomes available.
