Henry County Police officials expect to make additional arrests in an ongoing investigation that has, so far, uncovered more than $1.6 million in drugs. County officers, joining forces with federal narcotics agents, made six arrests in the investigation, and uncovered 50 weapons, ranging from hand guns to assault rifles.
"I was very impressed with how they worked this case, and the thoroughness...," said Henry County Police Chief Keith Nichols. "My hat's off to them."
