Today, 23 suspects from all across Westchester country were arrested and charged on accounts of dealing Heroin. The arrests were a result of a year-long investigation, and about $1 million worth of drugs have been discovered and confiscated.
Channel 2 (CBS) news came to the ASK office this afternoon to find out what our thoughts were, as a Drug Free Coalition, on today’s events. Tricy Cushner, President of the Board at Alliance for Safe Kids, Inc., expressed how happy the alliance was to hear good news like this and fortified the thought that communities have to work together to sucessfully keep our children, friends and neighbors safe.
“These arrests send a clear message that community coalitions, local police and drug task forces are all working together toward the same goal of reducing substance abuse and saving lives.” -Tricy Cushner, ASK President
