Three people are in custody, after Tulsa Police said they found almost 100 pounds of meth, guns, and thousands of dollars in cash in three neighboring homes.
According to Tulsa Police, the three homes near Pine and Utica were being used as one large drug ring.
Lt. Josh Goldstein who is over the Gilcrease Division's Street Crimes Unit, said the two officers, Anna Cox and Grace Hobbs, spearheaded the investigation which led to a huge drug bust Thursday morning.
"These two officers started developing some information on a very high-level drug dealer,” Lt. Goldstein said.
Lt. Goldstein said two months of following up led to enough probable cause to get search warrants for the three homes.
Officers arrested Damen and Daniel Torres, along with a 16-year-old. Police believe they are all related.
“There was some resistance at the third house, but not some much we had to break down a door,” Hobbs said.
Police said they seized 86 pounds of methamphetamine, $78,000 in cash, and nine guns. Cox said it's good they were able to move quickly on this case.
"The fact that we got it before it went into the community, it's really exciting for me,” Cox said.
Lt. Goldstein believes there are more people connected to this drug ring, which may extend to other counties. He said the investigation is still ongoing.
