Sequoyah County Sheriff Johnny Philpot reported that sheriff's investigators and deputies served a search warrant at the Sallisaw home of Leslie Dawn Meadows Wednesday afternoon.
During the search, investigators reported finding substances appearing to be methamphetamine, along with items of paraphernalia commonly associated with the use of controlled dangerous substances (CDS).
Meadows, 33, was arrested and booked into the county jail on charges of possession of a CDS and possession of drug paraphernalia. She was released on a $5,500 bond.
Pending further investigation, Meadows may face additional charges stemming from a search warrant served at her home last month, investigators said.
Area law enforcement officers teamed up early Thursday morning to serve a search warrant at Tom Gilbreath's home near Vian.
Investigators reported finding chemicals and equipment commonly associated with the manufacture of methamphetamine, substances appearing to be meth and marijuana, and alleged drug paraphernalia. Loaded firearms were also found during the search, investigators reported.
Gilbreath, 40, of Vian was arrested and booked into the county jail on charges of endeavoring to manufacture methamphetamine, possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, possession of a firearm in commission of a felony, and possession of drug paraphernalia. Gilbreath was released on a $25,000 bond.
Officers with the Vian Police Department and the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation assisted the sheriff's office during the search.
