Two Benton City residents were arrested on drug charges by the newly created Benton County Gang Team.

Gang team detectives developed information about alleged drug activity at a home at 56606 N. Frazier Road, and searched the home late Friday with help from Benton County sheriff's deputies, said Deputy Joe Lusignan.

During the search, detectives found methamphetamine, scales and packaging material for distribution, he said.

Brian Thomas Lee, 47, and Jennie I. Clossen, 29, both residents of the home, were arrested and booked into the Benton County jail on suspicion of possessing meth with intent to deliver.

Detectives also arrested Anthony W. Folino, 40, of Pasco, on suspicion of possessing marijuana, and Michael J. Templeton, 40, of Benton City, on several unrelated warrants.
