(KNZA)--What began as a response for domestic violence ended with the arrest of a man on charges including drugs and child endangerment.
According to a release from Brown County Sheriff John Merchant, deputies responded to the report of domestic violence, in Powhattan, shortly before 8:00 Sunday night.
According to Merchant, the investigation led to the arrest of 32-year-old Tobey Barnhart on two counts of domestic battery.
While the deputies were at the residence, the release says “they had probable cause to believe illegal drug activity was present.” Deputies applied for a search warrant, which they were granted, and a search of the home led to Barnhart’s additional arrest for two counts of child endangerment, possession of methamphetamine, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of marijuana, battery of a law enforcement officer, and felony obstruction.
According to Merchant, the investigation remains ongoing by his office.
