Katorro Hall, 31, Jonah Hall, 29, Michael Cherry, 28, and Tobias Krueger, 34, were arrested on Tuesday.
According to court documents, undercover detectives purchased drugs several times from a home in the 3400 block of Springhill Road over a period of two months. In each instance listed in the court documents, the undercover purchasers got different drugs than what were agreed upon.
In one transaction, the undercover detectives thought they were purchasing heroin but instead got a substance that tested positive for Fentanyl. In another transaction, the informant got Alpha-PVP or flakka, instead of MDMA.
On Sept. 6, documents say deputies executed a warrant to search the Springhill home and saw several people there to include the Hall brothers, Cherry and Krueger.
The Hall brothers and Krueger tried to run away when LCSO came through the home, but were quickly detained by deputies. Documents note that Cherry was carrying his infant child when deputies found him behind the home, seemingly attempting to run away as well.
When officers searched Katorro Hall, they found seven grams of flakka and more than $300 in cash on him. When they searched Jonah Hall, they found more than $1,000 in cash on him.

When investigators spoke to Jonah Hall, he also claimed he didn't live there and denied involvement with drug sales. Documents say he later told deputies that he was aware there were drugs in the house, but said they were for personal use.
