More than 70 people are facing drug charges.
Attorney General Josh Shapiro announced Monday criminal charges against 72 people for selling heroin, illegal prescription opioids, cocaine, crystal methamphetamine, crack, bath salts and other drugs.
These charges come from a year-long investigation by local authorities. Nearly half the arrests made today were for people selling Suboxone, a drug used to treat opioid addition and prevent painful withdrawal symptoms.
“Thus, the Suboxone traffic goes hand in hand with opioid addiction in this area and around the state and the county,” said Shapiro. “I would note that practically all of the dealers arrested today are street-level dealers. It is important that these individuals be targeted.”
People arrested today ranged from 21-60 years old. See the full list of those arrested below:
