Four men were arrested early Wednesday morning following the execution of a search warrant in southwest Austin.
Members of the Austin Police Department, Mower County Sheriff’s Department and the Southeast Minnesota Narcotics Taskforce served a search warrant at 1211 10th Ave. S.W. at just after 7 a.m. Wednesday.
Once inside, three men were taken into custody and a search of the premises turned up methamphetamine, marijuana, meth paraphernalia and marijuana paraphernalia. There were five bags of meth packaged for sale, each weighing at around 0.6 and 0.75 grams each.
A fourth man, the owner of the home, was arrested later in the day.
Charges are pending.
