(Napoleon, Ind.) – Two Napoleon residents are in jail after a police search of their apartment turned up methamphetamine.

Ripley County Sheriff’s Office deputies executed a search warrant at the apartment home of Timothy M. Winters, 34, and Carrie L. Winters, 35, on Tuesday evening, January 15. The investigation stemmed from information gathered by a deputy.

During the search, deputies found drugs and paraphernalia, as well as multiple items commonly used to manufacture methamphetamine. The Indiana State Police Methamphetamine Suppression Section was called to the scene to assist with safely disposing of the materials.

This case is currently still under investigation, and is being forwarded to the Ripley County Prosecutor for formal charging.

The Winters are being held at the Ripley County Jail pending bond on preliminary charges including Possession of Methamphetamine.

This is the third separate set of meth-related arrests in four days in Dearborn and Ripley counties. An Aurora couple was arrested Monday when Dearborn County authorities found a meth lab at a home that also served as a daycare. On Tuesday, Indiana State Police and Versailles Police partnered to make arrests when meth items were found in a motel room.
