ALLEN TWP. — Law enforcement has concerns with methamphetamine packaging seized in a narcotics search warrant executed Wednesday, Jan. 17 in Allen Township.

The Michigan State Police Region of Irish Hills Narcotics Office executed a search warrant in the 6400 block of Bacon Road in Allen Township Wednesday with assistance from the Jackson Narcotics Enforcement Team and troopers from the MSP Jackson Post included a K-9 asset.

RHINO detectives located and seized “distribution amounts of methamphetamine”, illicit pharmaceuticals tablets, and multiple firearms during the execution of the search warrant, a news release issued Thursday stated.

Detectives also discovered unique packaging featuring an image of a cartoon dog that the suspect, whose name has yet to be released, utilized to package the methamphetamine for distribution, raising concerns about its potential appeal to younger users.
