BUCYRUS -- Shortly after 5 p.m. Friday authorities busted another drug house in Bucyrus, a near-weekly occurrence so far this year in Crawford County.

Four people were arrested after detectives from the Bucyrus Police Department searched a tan mobile home at 1203 Monnett St., between West Irving Street and Schaber Avenue on the north side of town, according to Bucyrus Police Chief David Koepke.

They were assisted by the Crawford County Special Response Team, consisting of officers from the Crawford County Sheriff's Office, Galion Police Department and METRICH drug enforcement unit, as well as Bucyrus Police.

"Officers seized heroin, drug-trafficking evidence and cash and arrested four adults without incident. Three males are in custody at the Crawford County Justice Center awaiting formal charges," Koepke said.

The police chief said Christine Stevens was also arrested on a warrant out of Morrow County.
