PORTSMOUTH — Two local men were arrested Friday and charged with manufacturing a controlled substance: butane hash oil or butane honey oil (BHO), also commonly referred to as DABS in Portsmouth.
Portsmouth police executed two search warrants on Friday based on a month-long drug investigation, according to Detective Sgt. Michael Arnold.
Timothy Banville, 29, of 112 Highland Ave., and Tyler Ottilige, 29, of 87 Tallman Ave. were charged with manufacturing of Schedule I-II. Upon execution of the two warrants, police detectives seized cooking equipment, butane, compressors, scales and packaging equipment, 11 ounces of marijuana, butane honey oil and a 44 Magnum revolver, Sgt. Arnold said.
Mr. Banville and Mr. Ottilige were held pending arraignment.
Manufacturing hash oil from cannabis requires the use of flammable solvents that can make the process dangerous, according to the federal Drug Enforcement Agency.
