On October 24, FBI Philadelphia and law enforcement partners executed a large-scale operation against alleged members of a violent drug trafficking organization based in Philadelphia’s Kensington neighborhood.
“There is no question our streets are safer today because of the tireless dedication and diligence of numerous federal, state, and local partners, but our work is not done,” said Wayne A. Jacobs, special agent in charge of FBI Philadelphia. “The FBI, alongside our law enforcement partners at every level, will continue to serve our citizens by pursuing the dangerous offenders who shatter our communities’ sense of safety, security, and quality of life.”
FBI Philadelphia Special Agent in Charge Jacobs commended the close coordination and dedicated efforts of our partners at the Philadelphia Police Department, the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office, the Drug Enforcement Administration, and the U.S. Marshals Service.
Valuable assistance was also provided by the Philadelphia Police Department Narcotics Bureau, Philadelphia Police Department Office of Forensic Science Chemistry Unit, Delaware Valley Intelligence Center, United States Postal Inspection Service, Homeland Security Investigations, Customs and Border Protection, and Cherry Hill Police Department.
