KALAMAZOO, Mich. — A man is in jail after investigators executed a search warrant on Wednesday and found fentanyl, cocaine, crack cocaine and a stolen gun in a Kalamazoo home. 

The Kalamazoo Valley Enforcement Team (KVET) and Crime Reduction Team (CRT) had been doing an investigation into drug sales and decided to search a home in the 1500 block of Reed Avenue. 

In total, investigators said they found about 1/4 pound of fentanyl, 1.5 ounces of powder cocaine, 1/4 ounce of crack cocaine and a firearm that had been reported as stolen out of Kalamazoo County. Investigators also seized equipment used to make and sell the drugs. 

The suspect, a 49-year-old man, has been previously convicted of felony charges and can't legally have a firearm, KVET said. 

He was arrested and is being lodged at the Kalamazoo County Jail. He's facing multiple felony charges in this case, KVET said. 

Anyone with information about this case is asked to call KVET at (269) 337-8880.
