As a result, eight suspects were found to be in possession of methamphetamine, cocaine, or Hydrocodone. Investigations took place in Fawn River, Constantine, Mottville and Park townships; the village of Centreville; and the city of Three Rivers.

A 32-year-old White Pigeon man and a 39-year-old Three Rivers woman were arrested for possession of meth, Lillywhite said. Deputies are requesting charges through the prosecutor’s office for the six other suspects found in possession.
