A search of a Cole County farm turns up drugs, cash and surveillance equipment.

The find came during an eight-hour search of property in the 8100 block of East Campbell Road south of Russellville.

Deputies started the search at 1pm Friday and left the scene just before 10pm.

Cole County Sheriff Greg White says a report of stolen property lead them to the property and to get a search warrant for several buildings. Officers from the sheriff's office, the MO Highway Patrol and a drug task force could be seen taking items from a barn and shed.  

White says the day long search turned up a couple thousand dollars in cash, less than an ounce of meth, drug paraphernalia, surveillance cameras and a four-wheeler with the serial number filed off.

No arrests have been made.
