A lengthy investigation by NET 43 has led to a large drug bust and arrest of a Silver Lake man.
Officials say officers made a controlled purchase of one-ounce of meth in Silver Lake on Tuesday, and shortly thereafter, conducted a traffic stop on the prime suspect, 26-year old Cory Krider, where an another ounce of meth was found. An interview with Krider led officers to an additional one-and-one-quarter pounds of meth, with an approximate value of $42,000.
Krider was taken to the Kosciusko County Jail, where he is held on two counts of dealing meth and one count of possession of meth.
