Three people were in custody Friday in an ongoing drug investigation in Fallbrook, the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department reported.

Deputy Michael Estes said officers served a warrant early Wednesday morning after a crime suppression team learned that a home in the 2700 block of Los Alisos Drive was likely involved in the drug trade.

Estes said the following items were seized from the home:

  • Two ghost guns
  • One 12-gauge semi-automatic shotgun
  • One handgun
  • More than 1,300 rounds of ammunition
  • Handgun magazines
  • More than five pounds of marijuana, heroin, methamphetamines and fentanyl

Ethan Altshul, Ryan Furr, and Cole Nixon were booked into the Vista Detention Facility on suspicion of possessing drugs for sales, being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm and prohibited person in possession of ammunition, Estes said.
