A 40-year-old Ingleside man accused of selling heroin to undercover officers is facing felony drug charges, officials said Saturday.

Keith A. Knigge, of the 34600 block of North Gerberding Avenue, was arrested Thursday, according to a news release from the Lake County sheriff's office.

Police say Knigge sold heroin to undercover detectives on more than on occasion during a drug investigation, according to the news release.
