During searches in Dayton on Thursday, detectives recovered illegal drugs, guns, and cash and arrested three people as part of a long-running drug trafficking probe.
The Montgomery County Regional Agency Narcotics and Gun Enforcement task force executed search warrants at two Dayton residences, one in the 900 block of North Euclid Avenue and the other at the Wyoming Hills apartments in the 2400 block of Wyoming Street, according to a sheriff’s department release.
Officials said that investigators confiscated “a substantial amount” of fentanyl, cocaine, crack cocaine, methamphetamine, cash, and seven guns from the two locations.
Three people were detained and placed in the Montgomery County Jail on preliminary drug and weapon allegations.
“Illegal drugs and gun violence continue to plague our community,” said Sheriff Rob Streck. “Public safety continues to be my top priority, which is why my office will continue to target individuals who are poisoning our neighborhoods while curbing violent crime by taking guns out of the hands of criminals.”
