Deputies from the Sonoma County Sheriff’s Office arrested three people Thursday on allegations of having several weapons and drugs.

The narcotics unit served a search warrant in the 100 block of Mountain Avenue in the county’s unincorporated area, “detaining several people at the residence,” the Sheriff’s Office said on social media.

Deputies arrested 58-year-old Michael Armstrong of Santa Rosa on suspicion of possessing multiple firearms and having ammunition and fentanyl.

Deputies also arrested 56-year-old Jacqueline Armstrong of Santa Rosa on suspicion of possessing multiple firearms and ammunition and possessing fentanyl.

Officers also arrested 67-year-old Steven Finch of Santa Rosa on suspicion of possessing multiple firearms and ammunition, possession of a controlled substance while armed with a loaded firearm, possession of methamphetamine, possession of a short-barreled shotgun, and possession of a controlled substance with two or more prior convictions.

While booking Finch into jail, officers allegedly found fentanyl taped to his leg. He was also booked on suspicion of bringing a controlled substance into a detention facility and possession of fentanyl for sale.
