Last week, the King County Sheriff’s Office arrested three people in a large drug bust.

King County’s Southwest Precinct Special Emphasis Team, alongside K9 Quinn, seized 11 pounds of drugs during the drug bust.

In total, 6.6 lbs of cocaine and 4.4 lbs of fentanyl were recovered alongside two vehicles and $51,804 in cash.

“Another day, another bust. A big bust,” King County Sheriff’s Office wrote. “A shout-out to the many detectives and deputies from across the agency who assisted in this bust, especially to those who gave up their Father’s Day.”

The three suspects were booked into the King County Jail on multiple drug charges.
