(Update) Lieutenant Shawn Collie of the Buchanan County Drug Strike Force says three men detained after a search of a home in the Midtown area will be released pending further investigation.

Charges could be filed soon after the Buchanan County Drug Strike Force searched a home in the 1800 block of Olive Street Monday night. Lieutenant Shawn Collie says his team seized suspected methamphetamine and marijuana.

He says a firearm was also seized.

Lieutenant Collie says they met with the homeowners, who gave them permission to search the house.

Three males were taken into custody pending further investigation, although, so far, no formal criminal charges have been filed. Lieutenant Collie says they are waiting for the results of laboratory testing on the substances they seized, but he expected to confer with the Prosecuting Attorney’s office Tuesday.
