A local business has been ordered closed after the Andalusia Police Department executed a search warrant there this morning.

The APD obtained a search warrant, which it executed at approximately 9 a.m. on Friday morning. Chief Hudson said numerous items will be sent to the Department of Forensic Sciences for analysis. The contents of the business were seized by order of the Circuit Court of Covington County, pending further investigation into possible illegal activity.

The investigation is ongoing. No arrests have been made at this time.
