A multi-agency investigation led by the Ohio County Sheriff's Department Narcotics Unit ended with the arrest of three individuals on Friday, April 18. The investigation evolved around the alleged distribution of large amounts of methamphetamine in the Hartford area. The investigation began when members of the OCSD obtained enough probable cause to get a search warrant for a house in the 500 Block of Parker Avenue in Hartford. That search warrant was served on the evening of Friday, April 18. OCSD detectives were joined by members of the Pennyrile Drug Task Force and Muhlenberg County Sheriff's Department when it was served. Detectives located methamphetamine and the prescription medication known as Suboxone at this residence.

Elms, 35, of the 500 Block of Parker Avenue in Hartford. He was charged with first degree trafficking in a controlled substance (Methamphetamine), first degree possession of a controlled substance (Methamphetamine) and second degree possession of a controlled substance (Suboxone). During the course of serving the search warrant, detectives obtained enough probable cause to get another search warrant for an apartment in the 100 Block of McCreary Avenue in Hartford. Detectives were joined by members of the Hartford Police Department and Beaver Dam Police Department when this search warrant was served later that evening. Officers found more Suboxone and a methamphetamine manufacturing apparatus in the apartment.

These subjects later showed detectives where they had manufactured methamphetamine in a wooded area off Bald Knob Road in the Cromwell area.
