A Gentry County man is scheduled for initial arraignment Wednesday on drug-related charges.

55 year old Randal “Randy” Evans of Stanberry was arrested earlier this month by the Gentry County Sheriff’s office on four felony charges and is also a suspect in a missing persons case, Sheriff Tim Davis said.

Evans is charged with two felony counts of possession with the intent to produce and distribute methamphetamine. It’s alleged he was producing the drug in his home south of Stanberry. He’s also charged with one felony count of possession of a controlled substance and one felony second degree assault.

He allegedly assaulted the now missing 47 year old Daniel Lee Wolf of Stanberry. Evans allegedly waived a loaded pistol in front of Lee Wolf’s face and stuck the barrel in his mouth while the two along with another man were smoking methamphetamine, according to a probable cause statement filed by the Gentry County Sheriff’s office.

Wolf went missing in May but his disappearance was not reported until later.  

Evans initial arraignment is scheduled for 1:30 Wednesday afternoon. He’s jailed on a $500,000 cash bond.
