WILTON — A search warrant executed by the Wilton Police Department at a local mobile home park led to the arrest of a 50-year-old woman on drug-related charges, police said.

The operation took place at 6 p.m. on July 30 at the Wilton Mobile Home Park on Arkay Street.

Officer Maverick Real of the Wilton Police Department drafted the warrant, which was based on an investigation into the illegal importation and trafficking of scheduled drugs.

During the search, police seized items indicative of drug trafficking and suspected cocaine base, also known as crack cocaine.

Lisa Miniutti, who resides in the park, was arrested at the scene.

She had been recently indicted by a grand jury on drug-related charges and was out on bail at the time of her arrest.

Miniutti is charged with unlawful possession of cocaine base with priors, a Class C offense, and violating conditions of release, a Class E offense.

This marks the second search warrant executed at the same address within the last eight months.

The Maine Drug Enforcement Agency, Franklin Sheriff’s Office, and Farmington Police Department assisted the Wilton Police Department in the operation.

According to Chief Ethan Kyes of the Wilton Police Department, the address has been connected to multiple individuals charged with drug trafficking and related offenses since 2015.
