Toosen, who was near the scales and drugs when officers entered the apartment, claimed he was only there shooting dice, the report stated.

Hardin was observed fleeing the bathroom where police found the toilet clogged with toilet paper and a bag of crack on the floor. Hardin claimed he was going to the bathroom, according to the report.

The Dayton Police Vice Crimes Unit had been watching the building during the week of Jan. 25 and noticed a high volume of traffic coming and going.

Hardin and Toosen have both been arrested at least 20 times, including previous drug arrests. They were both booked into Montgomery County Jail.
