Fresno County Sheriff Margaret Mims today announced the arrest of three men in connection with a narcotics investigation that has lasted several weeks. Arrested was 28 year old Alfonso Arreguin-Orozco of Fresno, and 20 year old Edwin Arroyo-Zaragoza and 24 year old Jose Luis Delgado-Lara, both of San Jose.
The investigation by the Sheriff’s Narcotics Enforcement Team focused on the sales and distribution of methamphetamine in the Fresno area.
Last night, shortly after 7:00pm, narcotics detectives served a search warrant at a residence located in the 3000 block of Orleans Ave. in the City of Fresno. During the service of the warrant, detectives seized over 5 pounds of methamphetamine. The total street value of the narcotics is just over $150,000.00.
As a result, Arroyo-Zaragoza and Delgado-Lara were charged with possession of methamphetamine for sales and transportation of methamphetamine for sales, and Arreguin-Orozco was charged with possession of methamphetamine for sales. All three suspects were later transported to the Fresno County Jail where they were booked.
The Sheriff’s Office urges members of the community to call the Narcotics Hotline at 1-800-660-1086 and report allegations of illegal narcotics activity. Callers can remain anonymous.
