Zachary Pierce and Danielle Mullener were arrested on drug charges, thanks to an undercover operation by the Flagler County Sheriff's Office.
On Tuesday, July 27, the FCSO and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement executed a narcotics search warrant at 25 North Shady Lane, Palm Coast, after an undercover operation conducted by the FCSO Special Investigations Unit.
At approximately 6 a.m., FCSO SWAT knocked on the front door, and Zachary Pierce and Danielle Mullener exited the residence through the side door.
The SWAT Team entered the bathroom and found .25g of fentanyl, 1g of methamphetamine, and four syringes with one testing positive for MDMA. In the common area of the room, several other items were recovered with drug paraphernalia, including vials, unused plastic bags, and equipment with white crystalline substance residue.
While conducting a search of Pierce, a clear plastic bag containing 5.75g of methamphetamine, three bags totaling 2.4g of fentanyl, and a brown rock-like substance were recovered.
“This house has been a constant problem for the neighborhood with drug sales, overdoses and addicts living there,” Sheriff Rick Staly said. “These guys have not learned to get out of the drug trade, so they got a reminder yesterday when our deputies, detectives and SWAT team paid them a visit. I commend the Special Investigations Unit and our partnership with FDLE’s Tri-County Task Force for this undercover operation leading to the safe and successful seizing of drugs off our streets and two arrests. If you want to sell or buy illegal drugs in Flagler County, we will find you and we will bring you to jail.”
