  • 2nd phase of Operation Coin Toss completed
  • Detectives made 30 arrests

'Illegal drugs and the problems they cause are relentless, they kill people and destroy communities over time. Using any sort of illegal drug is destructive and affects the quality of life for everyone,' said Sheriff Mike Prendergast. 'Illegal drugs have no place here in our community. We aren't passing out warnings, we're slapping on handcuffs, and we are taking these criminals to jail to face justice. The men and women of this office took an oath to protect and serve the citizens of Citrus County, and to protect and serve they will.'

Sheriff Mike Prendergast says meth, fentanyl, heroin, cocaine, and drugs in the process of being manufactured were seized as part of this operation. While street value is unknown, sheriff says the important thing is they’re off the streets. @BN9#bn9citruspic.twitter.com/WnUXBP0xOy

During the second phase of operation, detectives conducted four search warrants at residences on the east side of the community:

  • 6841 North Bighorn Point, Hernando, FL
  • 4505 North Canyon Terrace, Hernando, FL
  • 4 South Wadsworth Avenue, Hernando, FL
  • 3357 E Buffalo Lane, Hernando, FL

The Citrus County Sheriff's Office executed 21 arrest warrants and arrested 30 people in the process, thirteen of whom have prior felony convictions.

'Simply put, ladies and gentlemen, these are not upstanding model citizens of Citrus County,' said Prendergast. 'They are hardcore drug dealers, they are known criminals, and we’ve had them on or target board for a long time.”

Resident Roy Stanard, who lives nearby one of the homes where a warrant was executed, expressed relief that something had been done.

'I’ve been telling the sheriff’s office about this for awhile now,' Stanard told us. 'About time, and they did a great job coming here and hitting these places. They need to clean this neighborhood up.”

Stanard did express some skepticism, however, about the long-term effectiveness of today's arrests.

'Problem is, the court system slaps them on the hand, cuts 'em loose,' he explained. 'Where does that leave us? Right back where we are again. They’re back here two weeks later, they’ll be doing it again.”
