On Wed. 09/29/2021, at approximately 1615 hours, the Polk County Sheriff's Office received a call for service in Wild Country Lake Estates in reference to two neighbors involved in a disorderly conduct and both had fired a weapon. Multiple Deputies from the Sheriff's Office arrived in the area and found Brandon Nichols and Amanda Roach walking away from the residences. They were identified as one of the parties involved in the disorderly conduct and they were transported back to the scene so Deputies could conduct an investigation. When Deputies arrived on scene, they identified the other party involved in the disorderly as Steven Malone and Samantha Hall. Frank Ruiz and Michelle Dodson were also on scene. During the investigation, Narcotics Detectives became suspicious into the subject's possibly being in possession of illegal narcotics. It was later determined by Deputies investigating the disorderly conduct it was a verbal only argument between neighbors and neither party committed a criminal offense with their firearms. Narcotics Detectives obtained consent from Frank Ruiz and Michelle Dodson to the search of their vehicle and they were both found to be in possession of methamphetamine. Consent was also obtained from Amanda Roach and Brandon Nichols and they were found to be in possession of methamphetamine. A search warrant was obtained for Steven Malone and Samantha Halls residence and they were found to be in possession of marijuana and methamphetamine and the items used to distribute methamphetamine. The following charges have been filed: Steven Malone: Manufacture and/or Delivery of a Controlled Substance, Methamphetamine, in the amount of greater than one gram but less than four grams Amanda Roach: Possession of a Controlled Substance, Methamphetamine, in the amount of greater than four grams but less than two hundred grams Brandon Nichols: Possession of a Controlled Substance, Methamphetamine, in the amount of greater than four grams but less than two hundred grams Frank Ruiz: Possession of a Controlled Substance, Methamphetamine, in the amount of less than one gram Michelle Dodson: Possession of a Controlled Substance, Methamphetamine, in the amount of less than one gram.
