Ashlee BurnsA 20-year-old man was arrested on felony drug charges last week after police executed a search warrant on a Wooldridge Road home.
Corpus Christi police served a search warrant on a home at the 7500 block of Wooldridge Road on Jan. 20 after a monthslong undercover investigation, according to a news release.
Quy Nguyen, 20, was arrested during the search. He faces felony charges of manufacturing and delivery of a controlled substance and possession of marijuana.
During the search, officers found 13.8 pounds of hydroponic cannabis, 5.5 pounds of THC oil, 2.2 pounds of THC butter and four firearms. Police located three vehicles and $67,000 in cash, which police believe to be proceeds from drug dealing, according to the release.
"The large amount of seized drugs, cash and weapons suggests this residence was a large-scale supplier of narcotics within Corpus Christi," the release stated.
