The Columbia River Drug Task Force (CRDTF) collaborated with Grant County's Interagency Narcotics Enforcement Team (INET) to address illegal drug activity at the Beyond Wonderland concert series. This operation resulted in eight arrests and ten criminal cases, underscoring the persistent issue of drug-related incidents associated with the event. Authorities seized approximately $2,000 in cash, three vehicles, and a range of illicit substances, including 89 grams of cocaine and 15 grams of fentanyl. Sheriff Mike Morrison highlighted the significance of inter-agency cooperation in promoting regional safety. The operation reflects a strategic approach to pooling resources and sharing intelligence among local law enforcement.
