Six arrested in Ella Street drug bust

Police arrested six Galesburg residents this morning where they found an assortment of drugs and two handguns.

Police officials say roughly six grams of heroin, four grams of cocaine and a small amount of marijuana — roughly 10 grams — was recovered from a home at 772 Ella Street. 

Jamie Campbell, Megan Stout, Isaiah Booker, Elijah Tapscott, Blake Earp and Christopher Nickas were all apprehended. The most serious charges were given to Campbell and Stout. 

Campbell faces a single count of possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver, a simple possession charge, a possession of heroin with intent to deliver charge, armed violence and possession of a weapon by a felon. 

Stout faces the same with the exception of the two gun offenses. The remaining suspects face lesser possession charges. 

In a news release, police say they executed a search warrant at the home around 6:30 a.m. 

None of the suspects have appeared in court to this point.
