BROOKSVILLE - A suspected drug dealer was arrested at home Wednesday by undercover deputies.

Michael Koester was sitting on the couch when deputies burst into his house at 20055 Peyton Place with a search warrant. Koester, 40, fought back the deputies attempting to arrest him until he was shocked with a stun gun into submission, a report states.

A search of the house yielded 22.2 grams of methamphetamine, 5.5 grams of marijuana, 3.2 grams of Oxycodone, a scale, baggies and a drug-smoking pipe, a report states.

Deputies also say they recovered a TV and a motor boat engine with the serial numbers filed off.

Koester was charged with resisting arrest with violence, trafficking in meth, possession of oxycodone, marijuana, drug paraphernalia and property with the serial numbers removed.
