Over the weekend, Idaho Falls police made four drug related arrests, including one felony charge for possession of a controlled substance. Police gained information which allowed them to obtain a search warrant for a home near 21^st Street and South Boulevard.

On Sunday, January 28^th, the highly trained S.W.A.T team created a plan and approached the home with two armored vehicles. According to Lieutenant Joel Tisdale, the S.W.A.T. team commander announced their arrival over the loudspeaker and that they had a search warrant. They asked everyone in the house to come out with their hands up. After breaching the home, IFPD arrested two males and two females on drug related charges.

Idaho Falls Police took 22.4 grams of methamphetamine into evidence, along with a small amount of marijuana, paraphernalia and other narcotics which are unidentified and undergoing testing. Idaho Code 37-2732B(4) lists 28 grams or more of methamphetamine as the threshold for drug trafficking charges.

Lieutenant Tisdale said the team did an exceptional job keeping the incident completely contained, executing everything according to plan and reopening streets quickly after the arrests.
