King County, WA – Operation “Eastbound and Down” is continuing to yield major results, with King County Sheriff’s deputies announcing another significant drug bust this week spanning Arlington and Bothell.
According to the King County Sheriff’s Office, deputies executed multiple warrants as part of an ongoing regional narcotics crackdown, arresting a local drug trafficker and booking him into the Snohomish County Jail. This week’s seizures add to a growing total now valued at over $1.6 million.
The latest operation removed from circulation:
• 11.8 pounds of methamphetamine
• 6 pounds of fentanyl powder
• 1.2 pounds of cocaine
• 223.6 grams of heroin
• $55,959 in suspected drug proceeds
• 1 Audi A6 allegedly used for drug distribution
Officials said the bust builds on last week’s enforcement, which netted over 100 pounds of narcotics and four arrests. K9 Quinn, part of the department’s Special Emphasis Team, also assisted in this week’s effort.
Authorities continue to emphasize the danger of fentanyl and other synthetic drugs in Washington communities. The operation remains active as part of a broader initiative targeting regional trafficking networks.
