Narcotics Division

Through the use of information provided by informants and concerned citizens as well as investigations conducted by assigned detectives, this unit conducts operations which result in the arrest of drug dealers on the street as well as the execution of search warrants where drug dealers live, store, and sell narcotics. This unit also seizes assets obtained by drug dealers through the sale of illegal drugs, helping make the narcotics unit self-sustaining. Within the Enforcement Team, specialized detectives utilizing certified narcotics canines interdict shipments of illegal narcotics as they are processed at local freight hubs.
