NORTH VERNON, Ind. — The Jennings County Sheriff’s Office arrested a North Vernon man Thursday on multiple charges, including two felonies related to meth dealing.
The investigation began with a Jennings County Circuit Court search warrant being granted for a home in Country Squire Lakes where Benjamin Creech, 30, was residing. During the execution of the warrant, deputies allegedly found about 65 grams of methamphetamine, over $2000 in cash, two firearms, scales, and other items used in the distribution of meth, according to the sheriff’s office.
Creech was then arrested and transported to Jennings County Jail where he is currently being held on a $10,055 bond. He was charged with dealing meth, possession of methamphetamine 28 or more grams, maintaining a common nuisance, possession of marijuana, and possession of paraphernalia.
