Last updated on Monday, February 27, 2017

(FERDINAND) - Dubois County Sheriff deputies and Ferdinand police recovered nearly 50 grams of marijuana after following up on a drug tip Thursday.

Police went to an apartment in the 620 block of West Ninth Street in Ferdinand after a report of possible drug activity in apartment 103.

Armed with a search warrant, police conducted a search and found 47 grams of marijuana and drug paraphernalia in a back bedroom.

Police arrested 25-year-old Joshua Ditto on a felony charge of possession of marijuana and a misdemeanor charge of possession of drug paraphernalia. The charge was upgraded to a felony count because Ditto had a previous possession of marijuana conviction.

This case was investigated based on an anonymous tip from a concerned citizen. Anyone with drug information is asked to contact the Dubois County Sheriffs Department or their local police department. All tips can remain anonymous.
