Massive Drug Arrest in Kenosha/Racine

KENOSHA/RACINE  — More than 44 people face serious drug charges after a raid that covered Racine and Kenosha counties. Authorities say they recovered crack, heroin and illegal guns. Federal, state and local officials announced the arrests Wednesday, April 29th — calling this the biggest drug bust in Kenosha County history.

“Undercover agents, surveillance, wiretaps and the execution of approximately 20 search warrants in the Kenosha area,” United States Attorney Gregory Haanstad said.

“I believe and hope that this investigation has severed a large pipeline of heroin coming into the city of Kenosha,” Kenosha Police Chief John Morrissey said.
