A Mountain Home area man, who has been arrested 11 times on drug charges dating back to 2002, is back behind bars. Thirty-six-year-old Robert Dillon Willett was arrested at a residence early Friday morning and is facing two new felony charges.
Baxter County Sheriff John Montgomery says the 911 Center received a call at 3:45 Friday morning of a possible fentanyl overdose on County Road 54, also know as Old Arkana Road. The 44-year-old female victim was given Narcan and transported by ambulance to Baxter Regional Medical Center.
While in the residence, deputies observed a shotgun. When deputies checked the identity of the male who lived at the residence, they discovered Willett was a convicted felon and is on parole. Deputies searched the rest of the house and found syringes and other drug paraphernalia.
Willett is facing charges of possession of drug paraphernalia and being a felon in possession of a firearm, both Class D felonies, and a parole violation. His bond is set at $15,000, with a no bond hold for the parole violation.
Montgomery says the investigation is continuing, and more arrests and/or charges are likely.
