On the morning of Tuesday August 9th, 2022, the Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office Narcotics Unit, with the assistance of the Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office SWAT team and the Collier County Sheriff’s Office SWAT team executed a search warrant at 18012 Ohara Drive, Port Charlotte, Charlotte County Florida.

 

As deputies were approaching the residence, they made contact with John Alton Knight, Jr. (4/9/1966) and gave verbal commands to put his hands up. Knight ignored the commands and fled into the residence. When units made entry, John was found next to the sink in the kitchen area, where he was calling out to a female in the home, identified as Rebecca Mary Knight (10/17/1982). John was resistant and continued to ignore the commands of the deputies. At this time, both John and Rebecca were taken into custody.

During the search, deputies located the following throughout the home:

  • Approximately 6 pounds of Methamphetamine
  • 58.4 grams of Fentanyl, 53.2 grams of Oxycodone
  • 27.41 pounds of Synthetic Cannabinoids
  • Tramadol, Suboxone, and copious amounts of used drug paraphernalia.
  • 447 suspected fentanyl pressed pills

Thanks to the hard work of my Narcotics Unit and SWAT team, with the assistance of the Collier County SWAT team, a large amount of poison is off our streets, which means more lives saved. We will continue to shut these drug houses down, one by one, until the message is heard: We do not tolerate this stuff in Charlotte County.
