K-9 unit aids in meth arrest
On Jan. 19, the Crawford County Sheriff’s Department K-9 unit conducted a vehicle contact in the parking lot of Wal-Mart located in Bridgeport Township.
The passenger in the vehicle exited and approached two other occupied parked vehicles. After identifying the parties in all three vehicles, K-9 Breck was utilized for open free air sniffs of all the vehicles. K-9 Breck alerted to the presence of one or more controlled substances on a 1993 Chevrolet pickup occupied by Dillan Boydtson, 34, Decorah, Iowa. A probable cause search of Boydston’s vehicle was conducted and a hypodermic needle loaded with liquid methamphetamine was located in the vehicle.
Boydtson was arrested for possession of methamphetamine and operating a motor vehicle with a restricted controlled substance.
Assisting the sheriff’s department was the Prairie du Chien Police Department.
