On Wednesday, the Forest County Sheriff’s Office announced four drug-related arrests within the last week.

Last Thursday, a Wabeno traffic stop revealed meth, syringes, and drug items in a car driven by Kristen Kozlowski, 35, of Laona.  Shandon Tallier, 41, of Laona was also in the car.

Both were arrested, and detectives found more meth, drug manufacturing materials, a digital scale, and packaging materials during a search of their homes.

Kozlowski and Tallier are in jail on $2,000 cash bonds.

Then, on Sunday in Wabeno, officers pulled over a car with Carl Gerdeen, 25, of Wabeno and Sharain Armstrong, 26, of Wabeno.  They found heroin inside.

Both were given signature bonds by Forest County Judge Leon Stenz.
