On Monday, March 23rd, members of the Coconut Grove Problem Solving Team, following a community crime tip, responded to the 3300 block of Elizabeth St.
The narcotics investigation resulted in the recovery of a trafficking amount of Heroin and Cocaine. The officers were also able to recover a stolen semi-automatic firearm. In addition to the recovered contraband, they were able to arrest 3 offenders on numerous charges. We suspect that these offenders are responsible for a large portion of the narcotics issues affecting the Village West.
The removal of the firearm from our streets will assist our ongoing efforts in reducing the gun violence in the area. The actions of our officers are in keeping with the highest standards of the Miami Police Department and will surely have a significant impact in the drug sales in the Village West.
This is the latest example of the powerful impact we can have when we work together to make a difference in our community.
