On January 6, 2025, officers from the Coffee County Sheriff’s Office executed a warrant targeting the residence of Ramon Ortiz on Sand Hill Church Road. Upon arrival, the officers did not find Ortiz at his home. However, as they were departing, they observed a pickup truck approaching the residence, occupied by Ortiz and a passenger.

The officers quickly approached the vehicle and detained Ortiz due to an outstanding probation warrant. During a brief inspection of the vehicle, officers discovered a quantity of methamphetamine, which was determined to belong to Ortiz. The passenger in the vehicle was identified and subsequently released without charges.

Following this initial encounter, the situation escalated as officers proceeded to enter the residence for further investigation. During their investigation inside the residence, officers uncovered a significant collection of collectible G.I. Joe action figures, which were linked to an ongoing burglary case being investigated by the Douglas Police Department from late December 2024. The action figures were seized and transported to the Coffee County Law Enforcement Center for safekeeping. The estimated value of these collectibles is suggested to range from $10,000 to $30,000 based on appraisal condition, the investigation remains active.

Ortiz, in addition to the violating his probation, was charged with possession of a noncontrolled substance with the intent to distribute. Further charges may be forthcoming as the inquiry by the Douglas Police Department continues. This situation highlights the interconnectedness of local law enforcement efforts and the complexities involved in investigating potential criminal activities that may span multiple jurisdictions.
