SEATTLE (AP) — Federal agents busted a drug-trafficking ring that distributed methamphetamine and cocaine from Mexico in Washington state and carried unusually powerful weaponry, injecting a dangerous new factor into drug crime in the region.
A .50-caliber Desert Eagle pistol, AK-47-type semiautomatic assault rifle and 14 other weapons shown to reporters Thursday were among 23 guns seized in Operation Arctic Chill when 35 search warrants were served in the past two weeks. Also seized were 19 pounds of methamphetamine, a quarter-pound of cocaine, 22 vehicles and $ 60,000 in cash, and 31 people were arrested.
The Desert Eagle pistol can “blow a hole the size of a Mack truck through a person,” said Leigh Winchell, regional chief of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Arnold R. Moorin, special agent in charge of the Drug Enforcement Administration’s Seattle office, said the ring was directed by a cartel in Jalisco, Mexico, and could move 50 pounds of crystal meth and “multiple kilograms of cocaine” a month.Drug dealing and violence led by Mexican cartels has been an increasing concern in communities nationwide amid a spate of violence on both sides of the border.
