A Thursday raid by the Warren County Drug Task Force resulted in a total of 10 arrests in the wake of multiple search warrants.

Warren County Chief County Detective Tom Kibbey said the Task Force was assisted by local law enforcement and county probation, Homeland Security and the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office.

The warrant was served in the Sugar Grove area and Kibbey said the search resulted “in the arrest of four known subjects related to controlled substances and weapons offenses.”

A second warrant was executed in the City of Warren in the wake of that search.

Kibbey said that search resulted “in the arrest of two known subjects who have been alleged to have been distributing methamphetamine and fentanyl. During the second search warrant, controlled substances were recovered from the residence.”

After both search warrants were issued, Kibbey explained that “officers then were able to place several other subjects in the Warren County area into custody for active warrants relating to failure to respond to criminal charges, failure to pay warrants, criminal warrants for possession and possession with intent to distribute, and probation warrants.”

He added that additional criminal charges are pending against some of the individuals taken into custody.

“The WCDTF thanks all the agencies involved including the Warren County Communications Center, the Warren County Prison, Emergycare, and the City of Warren Fire Department,” Kibbey said. “Further information will be released at a later time regarding this detail.”
