Greenwood drug investigation concludes with more than 40 arrests over three months

Delaware State Police say that more than 40 suspects were arrested during a three month long narcotics investigation centered around illegal drug purchases that happened at Unity Lane in Greenwood.

On April 13th, officials say the DSP Kent County Drug Unit and members of the Kent County Governor's Task Force and New Jersey National Guard Counterdrug Task Force concluded the three month investigation with a large-scale search warrant execution at Unity Lane. Police describe the activity at Unity Lane as an open air style drug market.

Law enforcement carried out eight search warrants, reportedly recovering more than 101 grams of packaged crack cocaine, 531 baggies of heroin measuring 3.717 grams, 48 grams of marijuana and multiple stolen firearms. More than $2,300 in suspected drug proceeds was also recovered, police said.

All five of these men were charged with racketeering, drug dealing, wearing a disguise during a felony, second degree conspiracy and several weapons and additional drug charges.
