Three months worth of undercover work by Manatee County drug investigators netted 30 arrests of what police described as street-level dealers according to an article in the Sarasota Herald Tribune. Of the 53 arrest warrants issued, all but 20 were served over the weekend.
Officials seized cash and drugs during the operation. Police say they seized 140 grams of cocaine, 37 prescription pills and close to $2,000 in cash. The dealers allegedly sold drugs in mostly minority neighborhoods and were targeted originally for dealing crack cocaine and marijuana among other drugs.
