Kewanna Man Arrested on Drug Charges

A Kewanna man was arrested Monday, September 12 after a search warrant was conducted at his residence.

Two Pulaski County deputies assisted a Pulaski County probation officer in conducting a search warrant at the home in rural Kewanna in Fulton County.  The officers arrived at the home when police say the suspect, 34-year-old Drew Allen, attempted to evade police on foot, but he was quickly apprehended. 

The execution of the search warrant reportedly uncovered a substantial amount of narcotics, methamphetamine, and more evidence related to the distribution of narcotics.

Allen was arrested and taken to the Fulton County Jail where he was booked on preliminary charges of resisting law enforcement, dealing and possession of methamphetamine, and possession of a firearm by a felon.  

The Pulaski County Probation Department and Pulaski County Sheriff’s Department were assisted at the scene by the Kewanna Police Department, Fulton County Sheriff’s Department, and the Indiana State Police. 

Suspects are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
