The raid was performed following an undercover investigation based on tips from the community.  Undercover surveillance was conducted to confirm that suspected narcotics were being trafficked out of the home.

"Dope houses continue to torment our communities and diminish quality of life for hard-working citizens who just want peace and to live in a safe neighborhood," said Sheriff Napoleon. "It couldn't have happened without the help of concerned citizens who cared enough to step up. We'll continue putting dents in these operations to drive home the message that dope houses won't be tolerated."
