A man is facing a federal narcotics charge after he was arrested during a search warrant execution by Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and San Antonio police's high-intensity drug trafficking area unit (HIDTA) on the West Side.

Both agencies responded around 6 a.m., Thursday in the 300 block of Alicia Avenue, near Culebra Road.

When they arrived, they executed a narcotics search warrant, and took a 54-year-old man into custody.
