Barstow Police reported that at around 12:48 p.m. on Thursday, officers and detectives served a search warrant at two residential units in an apartment complex in the 400 block of Woodham Avenue.
The search warrant by Barstow Police was a result of an ongoing investigation regarding the sales of fentanyl.
During the search of the first apartment, officers found fentanyl and drug paraphernalia associated with its sales. Also found was U.S. currency in various denominations and a gambling device.
