12 Arrested in Indiana Drug Raids

A coordinated operation by the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) and local law enforcement resulted in over a dozen arrests linked to a significant drug trafficking organization in central Indiana. Raids were conducted at approximately 15 locations across Marion, Johnson, Owen, and Hamilton counties, leading to the seizure of meth, fentanyl, cocaine, and firearms. The investigation, ongoing for several months, highlighted the connection between drug trafficking and rising violence in the area, with law enforcement emphasizing the devastating impact on the community. Sheriff Duane Burgess acknowledged the operation as a significant victory for public safety, while IMPD officials urged community members to support law enforcement efforts. The situation remains fluid, with some searches still in progress as authorities continue to address the drug crisis affecting the region.
