ROCKY MOUNT, N.C. (AP) — A multi-agency operation has yielded the arrests of eight documented gang members in a drug bust in North Carolina.
Edgecombe County Sheriff Clee Atkinson told news outlets the Tar River Regional Drug Task Force executed a search warrant on a Rocky Mount home Tuesday, seizing 520 bags of heroin, nearly $14,000 cash, three handguns and crack cocaine. Atkinson said the men arrested are part of the Sex Money Murder street gang, a subset of the Bloods.
