The Middletown Police Department’s Street Crime/Narcotics Unit had been conducting controlled purchases of illegal drugs from suspected dealers in Middletown from April to June.
After surveilling numerous street level dealers who had become targets in the investigation, police were able to obtain 15 arrest warrants.
As a result, the following ten people were arrested:
