BSO raided an apartment by a high school. Officers found drugs, a gun and almost $10K.
A drug raid near Dillard High School in Fort Lauderdale yielded several pounds of drugs, a weapon and nearly $10,000 in cash, according to the Broward Sheriff’s Office.
Four people — Harry Palmer, 70; Brook Price, 28; Alvin Richards, 27; and Latoya Smith, 39 — were arrested on various charges including cocaine trafficking, drug possession and intent to sell within 1,000 feet of a school.
BSO, along with other law enforcement agencies, executed the two warrants Wednesday at neighboring apartments near the 2700 block of Northwest 13th Street in Fort Lauderdale. There, they found a loaded handgun, roughly 32 grams of cocaine and nearly 5 pounds of marijuana in addition to the cash, deputies say.
The apartments were less than 400 feet from Dillard.
Court records show Palmer, Price and Smith have each been convicted of at least one felony.
