SUMMARY: On Thursday, November 10, 2022, investigators from the Sheriff’s Gangs/Narcotics Division conducted a traffic stop in the city of San Bernardino. During the traffic stop, investigators discovered evidence that led to a search warrant being obtained for a residence on the 200 Block of E 9th Street, in San Bernardino.
Collectively, the traffic stop and search warrant resulted in the seizure of 104.1 pounds of Fentanyl pills, 5.12 ounces of methamphetamine, and one firearm. This is an ongoing investigation, and no further information is currently available.
The San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors authorized funds to assist with county-wide crime suppression. The intent is to provide additional funding to the Sheriff’s Department, allowing for increased law enforcement services related to quality-of-life issues affecting the communities in our county.
Operation Consequences will focus on conducting targeted crime suppression operations in the High Desert and the Sheriff’s jurisdiction surrounding the city of San Bernardino. The operation will include personnel from the Sheriff’s Gangs/Narcotics Division, Specialized Enforcement Division, and Patrol Stations, as well as California Highway Patrol and San Bernardino County Probation. Operation Consequences will take place over the next several months to curb violent crime and disrupt and dismantle targeted criminal street gangs.
