MCSO ASSISTS POSTAL SERVICE IN RAID

On Tuesday, March 28, 2017, representatives with the United States Postal Inspection Service (USPIS), Montgomery County Narcotics Enforcement Team (MOCONET), Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office Gang Intelligence Unit, and Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office SWAT served a search warrant at a residence in the 10000 block of Royal Forest Dr. in Conroe, Texas.  Inspectors with the USPIS intercepted a package containing Marijuana being mailed from California to the Royal Forest address. A search warrant was obtained after probable cause was established regarding the sales and distribution of marijuana.

As a result of the search warrant, approximately 5 pounds of marijuana was recovered from the residence along with 12 firearms which included two assault rifles and a Tech 9 firearm. One person was taken into custody for possession of marijuana (Felony 3) without incident.

The Montgomery County Narcotics Enforcement Task Force is a cooperative multi-agency task force which consists of law enforcement agencies from, Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office, Walker County Sheriff’s Office, Montgomery County Precinct 4 Constables Offices, Texas Department of Public Safety-CID, Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office, Walker County District Attorney’s Office, Customs and Border Protection-Houston Air and Marine Operations, and Homeland Security Investigations.  Participating agencies recognized that a special collaborative effort was necessary to more effectively combat the drug distribution and collection of drug proceeds throughout the area.

The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office encourages those who have knowledge of illegal narcotics use or sales to please contact Montgomery County Crime Stoppers at 1-800-392- STOP (7867) or you can report tips anonymously at www.Stopdrugsmontgomerycounty.org
