BENTONVILLE -- A Gentry man was arrested last week after Benton County deputies found a still on his neighbor's land.
Roger Boyer, 52, was released from the Benton County Jail after posting a $1,500 bond. He was arrested in connection with illicit manufacture, possession, transportation of a still and possession or sale of untaxed intoxicating liquor.
Deputies went to a residence on Cherokee Road in Gentry to search for stolen property, according to a probable cause affidavit.
The deputies found a still near a mobile home. The owners of the property gave deputies permission to search and said the mobile home didn't belong on their land, according to the affidavit.
Lance Boyer told police his brother makes moonshine in the mobile home, according to the affidavit. Deputies found an evaporation coil inside a 55-gallon barrel near the trailer, according to the affidavit.
Deputies found another evaporation coil inside a blue 55-gallon barrel, 15 liters of assorted untaxed alcohol and five gallons of unbottled alcohol, according to the affidavit.
Roger Boyer went to the property and asked police if his still was illegal if it wasn't operational, according to the affidavit.
The Boyers live on the property next to where the still was found, according to the affidavit.
Roger Boyer's arraignment is scheduled for Sept. 21 in Benton County Circuit Judge Robin Green's courtroom.
