A Quincy man is behind bars tonight after a late night drug bust.

Adams County Sheriff's deputies have been working undercover for about two weeks, investigating this man, 54-year old Duane Porter who was suspected of selling drugs.

Then Tuesday night deputies got a state search warrant to his home at 6500 East Broadway.

Porter would not surrender to deputies...but eventually was arrested.

Officers searched the home and found two and a half pounds of marijuana and dozens of bags of acid.

He now faces charges of drug possession and resisting arrest.
