Not bad for a night’s work. Fayette Sheriff’s Drug Task Force, FBI and DEA agents pulled a drug reverse June 6 at Fayette Pavilion, seizing approximately $275,000 in cash, approximately one pound of “ice” (methamphetamine) and arresting six Mexican nationals living in Norcross.
The six men came to Fayette County expecting to purchase 15 kilograms of cocaine and to have another 28 kilograms fronted to them, according to task force Capt. Mike Pruitt.
The men were connected to a Mexican drug cartel, mistakenly believing that undercover agents were part of a “cell” linked to the cartel’s international drug operation.
Arriving in Fayetteville in three vehicles, including two with traps containing the ice and cash, the six men arrested were charged with criminal intent to traffic in cocaine and trafficking in methamphetamine.
