Officers confiscated drugs, money and a vehicle and arrested a Victoria man Thursday when they served a warrant at a home in the 1100 block of East Polk Avenue.

Michael Casarez, 41, was charged with possession of marijuana between four ounces and five pounds in a drug-free zone and possession of a dangerous drug by the Victoria Police Department Special Crimes Unit and SWAT Team.
