ACES Execute Search Warrant

On Thursday, 04/22/2021, members of the Hannibal Police Department’s Special Response Team (SRT) executed a search warrant in the 2400 block of Chestnut. The search warrant was a result of the Anti-Crime Enforcement Squad (ACES) investigation into the distribution of fentanyl in the Hannibal community.

During the search more than 300 doses of a substance believed to be fentanyl was recovered, along with US Currency. Billy R. Williams (27) currently of St. Louis was arrested for Trafficking Drugs and placed on a 24 hour hold at the Marion County Jail. A warrant was later issued in the 10th Judicial Circuit Court of Marion County charging Williams with Trafficking Drugs 2nd Degree with bond set at $50,000 cash or surety. Williams remains lodged in the Marion County Jail.
