$80K Drug Bust At Duck Creek

It was an eventful Friday for the Valley County Sheriff's Office as officers assisted the Tri-Agency Drug Task Force on Aug. 22. The team acted on a search warrant in the cabin area of Fort Peck Lake at 43 Mallard Drive.

The warrant allowed law enforcement to find a marijuana growing operation. The Sheriff's Office reported that an estimated street value of $80,000 of marijuana was found at the location. Suspect names were not immediately released and charges were pending. No arrests were made at the scene. The investigation continues.

This is the second drug bust in the past few weeks by the sheriff's office and the Tri-Agency Drug Task Force, as meth had been confiscated at a residence in Saint Marie.
