A two-week investigation into drug sales and gun possession ended Tuesday with the arrest of four people at an east side Windsor home.|

Four people were arrested at an east side Windsor home Tuesday where Sonoma County sheriff’s detectives found 13 guns, cash and drugs, a sheriff’s official said Wednesday.

The arrests followed a two-week investigation into drug sales and gun possession.

About 10:15 a.m. the sheriff’s SWAT team surrounded the Strech Lane home and called for residents to exit. When no one did, two loud “flash bang” devices were detonated, and three people emerged. A fourth was stopped when he drove up to the home.

A search of the home and garage found three handguns, six shotguns and four rifles, most loaded. One was an illegal short-barreled assault rifle, sheriff’s Sgt. Spencer Crum said. Deputies also found high-capacity ammunition magazines, a bulletproof vest, almost 100 grams of methamphetamine and heroin packaged for sale, counterfeit money and more than $8,000 in cash, plus a smaller amount of drugs and cash in a car.

Terence Martin, 31, was arrested on suspicion of several felony charges including possessing the illegal rifle, possessing an assault weapon and a stolen gun, and animal cruelty. Bail was set at $60,000.

Fabian Markam, 36, who had driven up to the home, was arrested on suspicion of possessing drugs for sale and transportation. Bail was set at $40,000. Two women at the home were arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia.
