## Resource

A major drug crackdown in central North Carolina ended with 13 arrests, seizures of a pound of cocaine, 10 guns, $40K in cash, and illegal gambling machines—all uncovered over six months after community tips led authorities to suspect dealers operating at local spots. Investigators found drug labs in homes with kids present, exposed ties between traffickers and gangs, and charged 170 people, with five still at large. Three armed robbery suspects—including a 15-year-old—were also arrested. The success hinges on community cooperation and relentless law enforcement, aiming to dismantle criminal networks and restore safety.
