Pullman, WALocal News

On Thursday night, Dylan Huckaby, a 28-year-old man from Dayton, was arrested for allegedly selling drugs to an undercover officer in Dusty, Washington. The Whitman County Sheriff's Office coordinated the operation after Huckaby reportedly offered illegal drugs through Facebook Messenger. During the exchange, deputies seized psilocybin mushrooms, LSD, MDMA, and a digital scale. Huckaby was booked into the Whitman County Jail on multiple drug charges and is scheduled for arraignment this Friday in Whitman County Superior Court. This incident adds to the growing concerns about drug trafficking in the area.

Local law enforcement is actively working to address these issues through undercover operations. Huckaby's arrest may lead to further investigations into his network. Authorities emphasize the importance of community vigilance against drug-related activities.
