SPOKANE VALLEY, Wash. — Three people were arrested after a search warrant was served at a Spokane Valley home tied to an ongoing drug and firearms investigation, according to the Spokane Valley Investigative Unit and the U.S. Marshals Service Pacific Northwest Violent Offender Task Force.
The agencies said the warrant was served Monday morning at a residence near the intersection of South Century Court and Sullivan Road. They described the home as a chronic nuisance property.
The agencies said they seized packaged fentanyl powder, methamphetamine, crack cocaine and several thousand rounds of ammunition. They believe the drugs and ammunition were brought to the home after a previous search warrant was served there on July 10.
The search also resulted in the seizure of one vehicle, four e-bikes and a second vehicle pending an additional search warrant, according to the agencies.
Four people were detained during the operation, but one was released without charges, the agencies said.
Those arrested were:
John B. Lewis, 53, was charged with Unlawful Possession of a Firearm 2nd Degree, Possession of a Controlled Substance with Intent to Deliver-Fentanyl, and Unlawful Use of a Building for Drug Purposes.
Lynn Ross, 57, was charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance, Methamphetamine.
Jessica R. Reeves, 38, was charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance, Methamphetamine, and Fentanyl.
The agencies said the home is the same South Century Court residence connected to Jack A. Gentry, who was arrested July 10 after a federal grand jury indicted him on multiple counts of distributing fentanyl and methamphetamine.
According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Washington, authorities seized 14 firearms, including a ghost gun, more than 3.5 pounds of fentanyl, about 2.25 pounds of methamphetamine, more than 1.5 pounds of cocaine, about $28,000 in cash, multiple vehicles and a motorcycle during the July 10 search.
The investigation remains active, and additional arrests or charges are possible, the agencies said.
