Cocaine, meth, fentanyl seized in Mobile County arrest
A “significant drug trafficker” was arrested Tuesday in Mobile County, as law enforcement seized cocaine, methamphetamine and fentanyl, according to Sheriff Paul Burch.
The sheriff’s office, working with U.S. Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), raided the apartment of James Leroy “Jamie” Harris Tuesday afternoon, the sheriff announced.
“This arrest removed a significant drug trafficker from our community,” Burch said. “We will not tolerate those criminals who distribute illegal drugs, especially Fentanyl, and we will be relentless in pursuing them.”
Seized in the raid were 10 kilograms of cocaine, one kilogram of methamphetamine, roughly 30,000 fentanyl pills and nearly $55,000 in cash.
Harris is in the Mobile Metro Jail, charged with trafficking cocaine, methamphetamine and fentanyl. An initial court appearance is pending.
