Two men in the village of Falconer are facing drug and weapon charges, after they were found with drugs, thousands of dollars in cash, and a stolen gun, police say.

Police carried out two separate search warrants at 19 South Work Street in the village of Falconer, after an ongoing investigation into drug sales in the Jamestown area.

When investigators searched Demario Chatmon's apartment, they found more than nine ounces of cocaine, cash, a loaded 9 mm pistol and brass knuckles, police say. The gun was found to be stolen from Erie Pennsylvania.

Investigators also searched Damien Thomas's apartment, and found two ounces of cocaine, and three ounces of marijuana, police say.

Police conducted the searches on Monday.
