SPENCERVILLE, Ind. (WANE) - A 65-year-old man is facing charges after police found marijuana and paraphernalia inside of his home early Monday morning.

Indiana State Troopers went to the home of Curtis Wittwer, located at 6717 CR 68 in DeKalb County, around 12:00 a.m. to serve a federal arrest warrant for dealing marijuana.

Police said paraphernalia items were lying in plain view inside of Wittwer's home and officers could smell burnt pot.
