Drug House Busted: Good News, Bad News

From the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:
Officers in the Milwaukee Police Gang Crimes Unit took marijuana, cocaine, cocaine base, a handgun, $17,000 and a bulletproof vest from south side home described as a drug house run by Latin King gang members, police reported.

The officers searched the house, 3255 S. 84th St., about 8 p.m. on Thursday.

The good news is Milwaukee Police broke up another Latin King operation.

The bad news is the Latin Kings' tentacles reach far beyond Milwaukee's near south side.

The drug house is steps away from West Allis.

Gang activity is infiltrating what once were relatively crime-free areas. Definitely bad news for Milwaukee and the surrounding communities.
