One of seven arrested after a drug bust in Wood County entered a plea in Wood County Court.

According to the Wood County Sheriff’s Department, on Oct. 6 of last year, they executed five search warrants in the Town of Hansen and in the Village of Vesper, where large amounts of methamphetamine, cocaine and heroin were seized. Investigators also seized a large quantity of U.S. currency and firearms.

The Marshfield, Wisconsin Rapids, Nekoosa, Stevens Point and Plover Police Departments, along with the Marathon County Sheriff’s Department and members of the Central Wisconsin Drug Task Force, assisted the Wood County Sheriff’s Department with the arrests of seven individuals.

One of the seven arrested, Mark Reiss, appeared in court and is facing a charge of possession of methamphetamine. He was found guilty, due to a no contest plea, of that charge. He’s scheduled to be back in court on July 10th for sentencing.
