(La Porte, IN) - A La Porte man is behind bars again for allegedly selling heroin and methamphetamine.

 

Daniel Turner, 37, of 503 East Maple Avenue is charged in La Porte Circuit Court.

 

Per prior documentation, two of the alleged drug transactions occurred late in 2021 at his home.  Where he was living at the time was not disclosed.

 

The other transaction happened early in 2022 after he pulled into the parking lot of Archie’s Restaurant and carried out the exchange from his vehicle. The exchanges combined were for $300.
