Five Month Drug Probe Ends With Major Odessa Arrests
Odessa police capped a lengthy five month drug investigation by raiding a Ranchito residence on Carrizo Avenue. Six Mexican nationals aged 20 to 26 were arrested and held without bond as prosecutors seek detention. Seized were about pounds of marijuana worth an estimated 240000 dollars, 2200 dollars in cash, three vehicles, a horse trailer, a water truck, and six weapons. The group was tracked by a DPS helicopter. SWAT members made the entry without incident. Prosecutors criticized interagency communication gaps.
