Zadnik arrested on drug charges
Oneida County Assistant District Attorney Steve Michlig indicated law enforcement began investigating Zadnik after a person close to him expressed concern about his welfare. He said the investigation uncovered the use of methamphetamine as well as morphine that was not prescribed to Zadnik. Michlig also said drug transactions may have occurred at the restaurant.
A judge set a $1,500 cash bond Monday. Zadnik will be allowed to enter inpatient drug treatment if he is unable to post bond. An adjourned initial appearance is scheduled for Monday, Dec. 23.
Zadnik's has been open for nearly a year in the former Zippy's Pizza building on North Brown Street. Owner Becky Roesler said the business will remain in operation.
"We wish (Randy) well and hope he gets better," she said.

Note: An earlier version of this story indicated Zadnik is the owner of Zadnik's Brick Oven Bistro. The business is actually owned by Becky Roesler. We apologize for the error.
