Attorney General Dave Sunday announced charges against 13 individuals following a collaborative Carbon County-based investigation targeting the distribution of illegal narcotics and related criminal activity.

The investigation focused on dismantling a network of suspected traffickers of fentanyl, methamphetamine, and other drugs in the region.

The Office of Attorney General’s Bureau of Narcotics Investigation, assisted by local law enforcement partners, recently served search warrants and arrest warrants. Nine people are in custody or have made arrangements to surrender; four others are fugitives.

The defendants are charged with felony drug trafficking and related offenses.

“Drug trafficking poisons communities of every size – from major cities to the smallest towns,” Attorney General Sunday said. “This operation sends a clear message: if you bring illegal drugs and risks of violence into our neighborhoods, you will be held accountable. Working alongside our local law enforcement partners, we are removing dangerous offenders from the streets and protecting families across the Commonwealth.”

Charged are: Alfred S. “Green” Singleton Jr., Megan Yarnell, Ashley Yarnell, Logan Loveless, Joseph Hollan, William Daniel “Tanker” Hawk Jr.,, Michael Andrejco, John Mika, and Trista Hosier.

Also charged and not in custody are: Rebecca McMunn, Dameion Jackson, Leanna Altemose, and Carl Christman.
