TAMA — After repeated noise complaints at a residence in Tama over the last few weeks, three men were arrested on drug charges Monday, and two of them were taken into the custody of immigration authorities, according to a release from the Tama Police Department.

Just before 6 p.m. on June 9, officers were called to the 1000 block of Oswego Street for the sixth complaint in a period of two weeks after previously issuing warnings and a citation.

The tenants were advised to keep the music down, and in plain view, drug paraphernalia was seen in the backyard, according to the release. A search warrant was requested and approved by a judge, and three individuals were arrested following the search.

Maynor Perez-Castro, 24, was charged with possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of a controlled substance, drug stamp violation (four counts) and keeping a drug premises. Jesus Abarca-Gomez, 23, was arrested for possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of a controlled substance, keeping a drug premises and fraud documents. Jose Delmar Hernandez-Gomez, 22, was arrested for possession of drug paraphernalia and keeping a drug premises.

All three subjects were transported and booked into the Tama County Jail, but Perez-Castro was the only one released as the other two were taken by immigration authorities. This case is still being investigated, and additional charges are expected for Perez-Castro. The Tama Police were assisted by Tama County Sheriff’s Office and the Tama K9 unit.

In response to a follow-up email, Tama County Sheriff Casey Schmidt clarified that all three men originally had Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainers, but ICE removed a detainer on Perez-Castro.

“The other two were picked up by ICE on their detainers,” Schmidt said.
