Rochester, MN (KROC-AM News) -  An arrest warrant was issued for a Rochester man charged in connection with a major drug bust last fall after he failed to appear for a required court hearing on Wednesday.

Conditional bail was set at $250,000 for 25-year-old Elliott Wilkens after he was charged with six counts of first-degree drug possession and drug sales following the execution of search warrants on his vehicle and home in Rochester. He also faces two lesser felony drug charges in the case.
