Soquel woman arrested, suspected of running drug house across from elementary school

SOQUEL – Sheriff’s deputies on Monday arrested a woman allegedly running a drug house across the street from Main Street Elementary School.

Sgt. Stephan Fish responded to reports of a drug activity at the home, 5005 Via Gatos, and found the owner, Amy Wehner, 44, allegedly under the influence of drugs, according to the Sheriff’s Office.

Fish also discovered a small marijuana cultivation in the garage and Wehner didn’t have a medicinal card, Sgt. Mark Yanez, who heads the sheriff’s drug investigation unit, said. Monday afternoon, detectives got a search warrant for the home and found drug use paraphernalia throughout the residence including needles, crack cocaine pipes and materials for converting powder cocaine to rock cocaine, Yanez said.

Other people leaving the home have been arrested on drug-related charges during the past month, according to Yanez.

Wehner was also booked into County Jail on suspicion of maintaining a place where drugs are used and sold.
