The arrests were a joint effort of the Sheriff’s Department, LANEG, the State Highway patrol, along with other area agencies.. There were 20 warrants with a total of 31 charges files. Each charge has a $15,000.00 cash bond set, for a total of around $460,000.00.

The arrests were the result of direct buys and overt techniques. The lowest charge was a Class C Felony, and the highest was a Class B Felony. The types of drugs involved were Marijuana, Cocaine, Methamphetamines, and Heroin. Charges stemmed for possession to sales. At press time there were 10 in custody plus 4 that were already in custody on other charges, with six still missing.
