 web posted September 12, 2007 EDGEFIELD – The Edgefield County Sheriff’s Office issued a press release on Tuesday on the drug sweep that took place on September 6 in the Johnston area. In addition to fourteen arrests in the sweep, officers seized approximately $1,500 in cash and “a substantial quantity of what is believed to be marijuana and cocaine.” The drug sweep came on the heels of a multi-agency six-month long narcotics investigation that included the Edgefield County Sheriff’s Office, Johnston and Edgefield Police Departments, Aiken County Sheriff’s Office, North Augusta Public Safety, South Carolina Highway Patrol, Aiken County Sheriff’s Office, and the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms (ATF). In addition to the arrests and seizures police also recovered a stolen vehicle from the state of New York. The drug sweep consisted of the service of several outstanding arrest warrants and two search warrants. The investigation is still underway and additional arrests are expected. Sheriff’s Dobey stated, “By sharing information and resources, law enforcement agencies are better (equipped) to fight the war on illegal drugs. I would like to thank all of the agencies that participated in this investigation and encourage all of our citizens to stay involved in helping to keep drugs out of our county.” For all
