Four Ironwood residents arrested in Meth bust

GOGEBIC COUNTY – Four Ironwood residents have been arrested following an investigation that began in March of this year by the Upper Peninsula Substance Enforcement Team (UPSET) and the Gogebic-Iron Area Narcotics Team (GIANT).  According to a press release, the two teams compiled information through surveillance, interviewing individuals, and other means. Officers worked with a confidential informant and an undercover officer was also able to purchase methamphetamine from one of the individuals.  Then last Monday UPSET officers were able to obtain a search warrant for a City of Ironwood residence. Officers from UPSET and GIANT were able to seize more methamphetamine, U.S. Currency, and a firearm which resulted in three more individuals being arrested.  Those arrested include 53-year-old John Allen Wodie, 31-year-old Chase Michael Sizemore, 35-year-old Danielle Sherry Brannigan and 56-year-old Thomas Oseth Grimm.  The Four face a number of Felony Charges.  All four are currently lodged at the Gogebic County Jail in Bessemer.
