The Levy County Sheriff’s Office Drug Task Force executed a search warrant at 12331 NE 64 Place in Williston yesterday afternoon. Detectives arrested Brian Keith Gruhler (12/9/66) for trafficking in methamphetamines, possession of heroin with the intent to sell and possession of marijuana with the intent to sell. Two additional misdemeanor charges have also been filed.

Gruhler became the subject of the Drug Task Force investigation several months back when anonymous tips started pouring in about his drug activity. Detectives utilized these tips and developed information that led to the application of the search warrant that was served yesterday. Detectives seized 23.5 grams of methamphetamines, 1.4 grams of fentanyl and 15 grams of illegally possessed marijuana.

Detectives additionally arrested Samuel White (7/16/83) of Palatka who was located in Gruhler’s home. White has been charged with possession of a controlled substance (Suboxone) and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Gruhler is being held in the Levy County Detention Bureau and his bond has been set at $206,000.00. White is also being held in lieu of a $26,000 bond.
