Woman charged with drug possession after search

A Butler County Drug Task Force search Wednesday turned up a little more than five bricks of suspected heroin.

Stemming from the bust, Erika E. Ringler, 33, of Butler, was charged with felony possession with intent to sell and misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia.

After her arraignment, she was taken to Butler County Prison on $100,000 bail.

According to charging documents, the task force searched a home on the 100 block of Mackey Avenue in Butler, where it also found cellphones, drug paraphernalia and about $2,470 in cash.

Authorities also allegedly found ID for Ringler and a rental receipt for the apartment with her name on it.

Ringler is scheduled to appear for a preliminary hearing May 24 before District Judge William Fullerton.
