Seabrook Police arrested 11 people and found a large amount of crack cocaine and suspected heroin/fentanyl following an investigation into illegal drug activity.
The arrests were made following the execution of a search warrant at 46 Collins Street Wednesday, according to Police Chief Brett Walker. Detectives found the drugs with a street value of $15,000, several firearms, and over $3,000 in cash.
The arrests came thanks to the work of the Seabrook Police Problem Oriented Policing Unit (POP), a hybrid of patrol officers and detectives.
"Our overdose numbers and deaths have gone down over the last couple years, but the drugs involved in many of these investigations are dangerous and represent a lethal threat to the members of our community," Walker said in a statement. "I would be remiss if I did not also credit members of the community who came forward with information. Thank you to the folks who stepped up to help us in these investigations.”
Walker asked anyone with information about this investigation or illegal drug activities to call the Seabrook Police Department at 603-474-5200 or through the Crimeline for the Hamptons at 603-929-1222
