A Centerville man has been charged in Fairfield County with trafficking methamphetamine, according to the Fairfield County Sheriff’s Office.
William “Will” C. Dinkins, 33, has been charged with trafficking methamphetamine, possession of a controlled substance and possession of a weapon during a violent crime.
The arrest came after a drug investigation was conducted at a home on Wood Duck Road in the Centerville area of Fairfield County, the sheriff’s office said.
While executing a search warrant, the sheriff’s office found 10 grams of methamphetamine, Clonazepam pills, a schedule IV narcotic, and a handgun.
Dinkins was taken to the Fairfield County Detention Center where he awaits a bail hearing.
“Drugs and substance abuse lead to so many other crimes, such as thefts and assaults, and these types of investigations are also critical to reducing these types of crimes,” Sheriff Will Montgomery said in a statement.
