Key Trace Exposes Drug Haul In Bank Vault
Detective Van Orden traced a drug ring over three weeks through a series of transfers from Dave Baxter who held the vault key. Baxter, earlier sentenced to Warm Springs for drug charges, aided by a jail escapee, a bartender, and other associates, ultimately led police to a safety deposit box on West Park Street containing a large quantity of outlawed drugs. Baxter was returned to Warm Springs after the drugs were seized.
