After multiple overdose incidents in Northeast Georgia counties, drug enforcement officials made three arrests from a group allegedly “responsible for trafficking pounds of heroin valued at nearly $100,000.” The Appalachian Regional Drug Enforcement Office said the arrests were the result of an 18-month investigation after three known heroin overdose incidents in Habersham, White and Banks counties. Agents executed two searches in Demorest and Cleveland, which led to $7,000 worth of heroin.
