Franklin County Sheriff's Office issued the following announcement on Feb 22.
DRUG BUST. Outstanding work by the Special Investigation Unit (SIU) and K9 Rabban for the recent seizure of a kilo of fentanyl. The undercover drug investigation led to a traffic stop on I-71 near Stringtown Road where Rabban alerted to the odor of narcotics. Detectives seized the kilo but they were just getting started. Armed with a search warrant, the SWAT team and SIU raided the suspect’s home in the 800-block of Byron Avenue and seized an additional 1200 grams of fentanyl. Detectives charged Nelson O. Matute, 36, and Sergio Acsencio Vazquez, 31, with aggravated drug trafficking. The court set the suspects’ bond at $1-million dollars.
Great work by everyone involved and a special thanks to the Regional Narcotics Unit in Hamilton County for partnering and collaborating with us to take this poison off the street.
