NextImg:Mother arrested after trying to hide fentanyl stash in child's Disney toy box

An Indiana woman was arrested Wednesday after police raided her home and discovered a massive fentanyl stash.

The discovery occurred after officers with Fort Wayne Police Department's SWAT team entered the home of 31-year-old Brittany Sierra, according to a report.

Emergency Services Team officers had attempted to serve a warrant at the residence around 1:30 p.m. when two people, one of whom was a 5-year-old girl, came outside.

Sierra had refused to leave and locked herself in the master bedroom, which has a bathroom, according to Allen Superior Court documents.

When SWAT members entered the apartment, it appeared someone had attempted to ditch a large amount of narcotics.

Trash, strewn belongings, and shattered glass littered the bathroom floor, and authorities discovered a stolen firearm inside the toilet tank.

The toilet bowl was full of a powdery substance that tested positive for fentanyl, and at least 200 grams of the drug were discovered throughout the residence, including in a Disney toy box believed to belong to Sierra's 5-year-old daughter.

At least 1.2 grams were in the "Disney Encanto Bracelet Activity Surprise" box, court documents noted.

Sierra surrendered to authorities and is facing preliminary charges, including dealing in a narcotic drug and neglect of a dependent, the report noted.

When she was taken to Allen County Jail, a body scanner found she had tried to smuggle fentanyl inside the facility, according to the report.

Sierra is being held on a $70,000 bond, and her latest arrest jeopardizes a suspended two-year prison sentence related to a 2021 incident.
