On May 14, detectives with the Arizona Department of Public Safety (AZDPS) State Gang Task Force conducted a traffic stop near 14th Street and Baseline Road in Phoenix.
During the stop, a narcotics detection canine alerted to the vehicle, prompting a search. Detectives located about one pound of methamphetamine inside the vehicle and arrested two suspects.
Investigators later served a related search warrant at a home near Central Avenue and Dobbins Road.
During that operation, detectives arrested a third suspect and seized three firearms. Two handguns and one Draco-style rifle, along with three pounds of methamphetamine, more than $6,000 in cash, and a small amount of cocaine, officials said.
