In October the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office Narcotics Enforcement Team (NET) started an investigation targeting heroin sales in the West 192 corridor of Osceola County. During the investigation, NET developed probable cause to serve a search warrant on 147 Durham Circle in the Sherwood Forrest Mobile Home Park.

On December 8th “NET” served a search warrant at 147 Durham Circle and recovered the following items; 43 grams of suspected Fentanyl, 1 Glock Firearm, $663.00 in U.S. Currency and 1 Steel Press.

The following suspects were arrested in connection to this investigation:
