Columbus Grove woman sentenced to probation for drug possession

OTTAWA — A Columbus Grove woman was sentenced to five years of probation and treatment at the WORTH Center Thursday in the Putnam County Common Pleas Court for a third-degree felony drug possession charge.

Elyssa Gutierrez, 23, pleaded guilty in July to the charge rather than the second-degree felony on which she was indicted.

The indictment said Gutierrez was found with 27 grams of methamphetamine after a traffic stop.
