Dodge City man arrested after months-long narcotics investigation

A man from Dodge City, Kansas, was apprehended last week following a thorough investigation into his alleged involvement in fentanyl sales. The investigation spanned several months, as stated in an official release.

On Thursday, November 14, the Dodge City Police Department Special Operations Division detectives, in collaboration with the Ford County Sheriff’s Office deputies, Kansas Bureau of Investigation, and Kansas Highway Patrol Troops N and T (Air Support Unit) troopers, successfully concluded a thorough investigation into the reported sales of Fentanyl. This investigation spanned several months and involved multiple agencies working together.

A Dodge City resident, 53-year-old Jason Allen Railsback, has been taken into custody and formally charged by the Ford County Attorney’s Office. He faces multiple charges, including two counts of distributing Fentanyl within 1000 feet of a school, two counts of using a communication facility to arrange drug transactions, and two counts of unlawfully acquiring proceeds from a drug felony. According to the investigation, it is alleged that Railsback regularly supplied numerous individuals in Dodge City with pills believed to contain Fentanyl.

The Dodge City Police Department is committed to collaborating with other local law enforcement agencies in our community to effectively combat Fentanyl dealers. It is important to remember that all suspects should be presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
