UPDATE: Deputies with the Brown County Sheriff’s Department, along with officers of the Brownwood Police Department executed a methamphetamine search and arrest warrant signed by County Court at Law Judge Sam Moss for Acey Sliger at his residence in the 1900 block of 4th St.

During the entry of the home by the sheriff’s office tactical team, five individuals were located in the master bedroom. They were Acey Sliger, Lisa Gross, Rachel Perez, Brian Sims and Delsie Darnell. During the search, two baggies of methamphetamine, used hypodermic syringes and liquid methamphetamine. Some of the meth was in plain view.

The total weight of the methamphetamine was approximately 67 grams. The residence where the narcotics were located was within 1000 feet of the Boys and Girls Club, which is considered a drug-free zone. All five arrestees were arrested for possession of a substance in penalty group 1, more than four grams, less than 200 grams in a drug free zone.

Representatives from the Brown County Sheriff’s Office, Brownwood Police Department, Early Police Department and the Texas Rangers took part in the execution of the “no knock” warrant.

 

ORIGINAL STORY:

After complaints from residents in the area and others in the community, several law enforcement agencies teamed up Tuesday morning to conduct a “no-knock” search warrant on a home in the 1600 block of 4th St.

Brown County Sheriff Vance Hill said that although only one suspect was named in the warrant, Acey Sliger, a total of five individuals were arrested. Hill said this particular bust was exciting. “If you turn around, the Boys and Girls Club is right there,” Hill said. “This will not be tolerated.”

Brownwood Police Chief Terry Nichols said the two agencies working together has proven to be successful once again. “We are stronger together. You can see the volume of drug use in this neighborhood and with all of us, we were quick to jump on this.”

Nichols is encouraging the community to contact law enforcement if they are aware of illegal activity. “Reach out to us. Call us. We will come. As you see today, we will come.” Nichols also encouraged the community using Crime Stoppers if they do not want to call dispatch directly. Nichols said that although the weight seized was a minor amount, it is not always about the numbers. “Sometimes, the smaller numbers make just as big of an impact,” Nichols said. “It destroys our community and we are taking a hard stance on this. We will use a lot of resources to target people who traffic narcotics in Brown County.”

The Early Police Department and a member of the Texas Rangers also assisted with the serving of the warrant.
