Two men arrested after drugs found in search

A search of a South Blanchard Street residence uncovered drugs and led to the arrest of two men, according to the Hancock County METRICH Drug Task Force.

At 5:48 a.m. today, METRICH — with assistance from the Findlay Police Department Emergency Response Team — executed a search warrant at 1212 S. Blanchard St.

A search of the residence uncovered cash, approximately 281 grams of crack cocaine, 48 grams of heroin, 293 grams of marijuana, drug paraphernalia, criminal tools, and items indicative of drug trafficking, according to METRICH.

As a result of the search, Michael D. Parham, 29, of Findlay, and Ramone T. Henry, 38, of Chicago, were arrested and charged with possession of crack cocaine, a first-degree felony. Both are being held in the Hancock County jail.

The investigation is ongoing, and additional charges are expected, METRICH said.
