WAKULLA COUNTY, Fla. (WTXL) — The Wakulla County Sheriff's Office has arrested six people for selling drugs out of a Crawfordville home.

On Friday, the Wakulla County Sheriff's Office conducted a search warrant at the home of Denver Cyr on 850 Whiddon Lake Road in Crawfordville and arrested six people.

Detectives have received multiple citizen complaints alleging drug activity at the home, so the residence was identified as a “hot spot.”

On three separate occasions, deputies conducted traffic stops on multiple vehicles in the area of Cyr's home, where people were found to be in possession of drugs.

This month, probable cause was found that there was methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia at 850 Whiddon Lake Road and a search warrant was obtained to search the property.

When the search warrant was executed, deputies say the home and a shed on the property that was modified to function as living quarters were occupied by Denver Cyr, Faith Cyr, Samuel Gibbons, Josh Warren, Connor Harrison, Billie Jo Jones, and a child.

During the search, a bolt action rifle with an altered serial number, methamphetamine, marijuana, baggies, smoking devices and cut straws were found and taken away.

Based on the evidence, deputies arrested the following people and booked them into the Wakulla County Jail on the following charges:

• Denver Edward Cyr (DOB: 08-22-1979) - Possession of methamphetamine; possession of drug paraphernalia; possession of a firearm with an altered serial number; maintaining a Public Nuisance place where controlled substances are illegally kept, sold, or used; and two counts of child neglect (two children).

• Faith Marie Cyr - Possession of methamphetamine; possession of marijuana; possession of drug paraphernalia; and maintaining a Public Nuisance place where controlled substances are illegally kept, sold, or used.

• Samuel Steve Gibbons - Possession of methamphetamine; possession of marijuana; possession of drug paraphernalia; and maintaining a Public Nuisance place where controlled substances are illegally kept, sold, or used.

• Joshua Cross Warren - Possession of methamphetamine; possession of drug paraphernalia; and maintaining a Public Nuisance place where controlled substances are illegally kept, sold, or used.

• Connor Morgan Harrison – Warrant for violation of probation; and maintaining a Public Nuisance place where controlled substances are illegally kept, sold, or used.

• Billie Jo Jones - Possession of methamphetamine; possession of drug paraphernalia; and maintaining a Public Nuisance place where controlled substances are illegally kept, sold, or used.

Billie Jo Jones was also arrested last week in connection to another drug bust in Wakulla County.
