William Edgar Williams

Just after 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 9, 2015, the Cherokee County Sheriff's Office executed a narcotics related search warrant at 308 North Willow, just outside of Baxter Springs.

During the course of the search, investigators discovered a considerable amount of suspected marijuana, which appeared to be packaged to sell.

Arrested at the home was 52 year old William Williams, who was transported to the Cherokee County Jail on allegations of Possessing Marijuana with Intent to Distribute, Possession of Controlled Substances, and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia.

The search warrant was the result of a month long investigation into illegal narcotic activity at the residence.

Williams remains in the Cherokee County Jail without bond.
