JACKSONVILLE, Fla. \u2013 A 41-year-old man is facing charges after the Jacksonville Sheriff\u2019s Office said it found over 400,000 potentially lethal doses of fentanyl and other drugs in his Westside home.<\/p>\n

Officials said they got information that Christopher Herndon was selling fentanyl, so they got a warrant and searched his home on Potomac Avenue on Aug. 27.<\/p>\n

JSO said it seized:<\/p>\n

849.2 grams of fentanyl<\/p>\n

1.33 kilograms of methamphetamine<\/p>\n

1.25 kilograms of powder cocaine<\/p>\n

57.3 grams of crack cocaine<\/p>\n

14.3 grams of marijuana<\/p>\n

Nearly $12,000<\/p>\n

3 cars<\/p>\n

Officials said Herndon wrote in a notebook, \u201cno police…will come to me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you are bringing in large amounts of deadly drugs into our community, our officers and detectives will come to you and hold you accountable,\u201d JSO said. <\/p>\n
