Several guns seized in drug bust on Melon Street; three arrested
BATON ROUGE - Law enforcement seized several guns and drugs from a home on Melon Street during a drug bust.
The Baton Rouge Police Department said it was called to respond to a "suspicious incident" at an address on Melon on Monday. Several men were outside, and after conducting interviews with some of them, officers obtained a search warrant for the home.
While serving the warrant, officers found six guns—one of which was reported stolen—marijuana, fentanyl, cocaine, heroin and a large amount of cash.
Three people, later identified as Lester Wilson, 26, Deonte Matthews, 26, and Kayleb Williams, 22, were arrested on numerous narcotics and firearm-related charges.
