Local authorities collected more than 190 pounds of unused or expired medication Saturday during Operation Pill Drop. Members of the Hall County Sheriff’s Office and Gainesville, Oakwood and Braselton police departments were stationed at six sites throughout the county collecting medicine from residents as part of the National Prescription Drug Take Back Day. “The success of the event continues to grow,” said Sgt. Stephen Wilbanks, Hall County Sheriff’s Office spokesman.
