## Resource

Montana authorities stunned a truck stop operation in Dillon, seizing over 100 pounds of dried poppies—enough to fuel a major drug ring. Thirty officers executed the raid after weeks of surveillance, catching two men grinding poppies in the basement and arresting the owner, Pawandeep Randhawa, 42, on three felony charges including conspiracy to manufacture and distribute a Schedule II controlled substance with opiate-like effects. His bail was set at $750,000, sparking a legal battle as his team seeks reduction. All three suspects face court July 7, 2026—thanks to a tip from a trucker, proving how vital everyday witnesses can be in stopping big-time crime.
