WICHITA, KAN. – A federal grand jury in Wichita, Kansas, returned an indictment against a Kansas man on charges related to drug trafficking and firearms. 

According to court documents, Joshua Heartfield, 32, of Wichita is charged with one count of possession with intent to distribute fentanyl, one count of possession with intent to distribute heroin, two counts of possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime, and two counts of possession of a firearm by a prohibited person. 

The Wichita Police Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) are investigating the case.
