The GSU made two large drug busts in two days. Late last night, acting off intelligence, the GSU searched a bushy lot behind a house on Caesar Ridge Road. They found three crocus bags each containing several parcels of cannabis. The first bag had sixteen parcels weighing just over ten pounds. The second had twelve parcels that together weighed almost 19 pounds. The final parcel also contained 12 parcels that came up to sixteen and a half pounds. 

Altogether, the GSU came up on forty parcels of cannabis, weighing a total of 45 and a half pounds. They believe that the drugs belong to key members of the South Side Gang, but no suspects were around the scene so the parcels were entered as found property.

The GSU conducted another search this morning, this time at an abandoned lot on the Faber’s Road Extension. Two parcels of cannabis were found in an empty tire, and after a more thorough search, another five were found in the area. The seven parcels amounted to just over seven pounds. No one was in the area, so the cannabis was labelled as found property.
