Rowan Deputies Find 40 Pounds of Marijuana While Executing Search Warrant

 Ismael Garcia Gonzalez 

After Rowan County Sheriffs executed a search warrant in Kannapolis, 31 year-old Ismael Garcia Gonzalez was arrested for drug trafficking after 40 pounds of marijuana were found in his home.

The house is located on the 200 block of Russell Farm Road. Officers searched the residence Wednesday and say the drugs they found have a value of around $40,000.

As Gonzalez was held without bond, he is still in the Rowan County Detention Center. Police have charged him with trafficking marijuana and placed an immigration hold on Gonzalez. This means that whatever the outcome of his trial and sentencing, he will be transferred to immigration detention upon his release.
