Agents Conduct Heroin/Fentanyl Bust Last Night

Butler County Sheriff Richard K. Jones reports that Butler County Undercover Regional Narcotics (BURN) Agents successfully concluded a week-long heroin trafficking investigation with an arrest last night and the seizure of drugs, money, and a handgun.

After receiving information of a heroin trafficking operation in the Fairfield, Ohio, area, agents have had Stefan A. Rutledge, age 32, of Cincinnati, under surveillance for about a week. Early evening yesterday (April 28), after observing Rutledge complete what appeared to be a drug transaction on Ramblewood Dr., Fairfield, agents attempted to have his vehicle stopped with the aid of marked patrol units. Rutledge initially failed to pull over, and led officers on a slow-speed pursuit into Hamilton County while he was tossing items (later recovered) out of his vehicle along the way. He eventually stopped in Forest Park, and was taken into custody.

He has been charged with felony counts of Trafficking in Heroin, Possession of Heroin, and Possession of Bulk Amount of Fentanyl, along with Misdemeanor Failure to Comply with a Police Order. He is currently housed at the Butler County Jail.

“I’ve tried to tell drug dealers before – if you bring your poison to Butler County, we are going to go after you,” said Sheriff Jones. “This heroin, combined with fentanyl, is definitely the poison of choice right now. It is resulting in tragic consequences along all social levels and from the rich to the poor. This bust may just seem like just a drop in the bucket, but we’ve got to start somewhere,” he concluded. “Good work by my agents.”
