Lake County man arrested after two-month long drug investigation

A Lake County (Indiana) man was arrested on Monday after police conducted a two-month drug investigation.

The Lake County Sheriff said that they served a narcotics search warrant at a house in St. John, Indiana on Monday morning.

They arrested Griffin Spoljoric, 18, of St. John and confiscated "items typically used in the sale and/or distribution of narcotics."

Update: Spoljoric was charged with misdemeanor counts of possession of marijuana and possession of paraphernalia, and a felony count of maintaining a common nuisance, according to court records.

In exchange for his guilty plea, prosecutors agreed to drop the lesser charges. He received a 30-month suspended sentence which was served on probation along with 80 hours of community service, the documents said.
