Six arrested, half-pound of meth seized in Kandiyohi and Sterns County drug raids

Six people were arrested and half-a pound of methamphetamine was seized Monday in an ongoing drug investigation in Kandiyohi and Sterns Counties.

On Jan. 30, agents with the CEE-VI Drug and Gang Task Force performed three narcotics search warrants in three different cities in Kandiyohi and Stearns Counties. These search warrants were related to the trafficking of methamphetamine into the CEE-VI service area.

Six individuals were arrested for a variety of controlled substance charges after agents located and seized over a half pound of methamphetamine, three handguns and several thousands of dollars in cash believed to be the proceeds from methamphetamine sales.

The CEE-VI Task Force was assisted by the Central Minnesota Task Force as well as the MN BCA and other local Law Enforcement Agencies. This case is still ongoing and active at this time and additional arrests are anticipated in the future.
