Flagler County Sheriff James L. Manfre credits tips from local citizens to the successful outcome of the one-month long investigation.

"We received several citizen tips of drug activity at this residence. We quickly responded to those tips, launched an investigation and today made this arrest," said Sheriff Manfre. "We depend on the community to help us keep their neighborhoods safe. I encourage other residents to report suspicious activity in their neighborhoods."

Tyler was being held in the Flagler County Inmate Facility on $6,000 bond on the drug charges and no bond on the violation of probation.

Additional charges may be pending, deputies said.
