 August is hot and so are the savings at Appalachian Wireless, where all smartphones are 50% off. Even the 64, 128 and 256 gig models, two-year agreement required. Better service, bigger savings. That's today's Appalachian Wireless and East Kentucky Network Company. In Knot County Friday morning, six people were arrested in a drug roundup that targeted 14 alleged drug dealers, some with multiple counts of first-degree drug trafficking. 60-year-old Dwayne Blanton of Viper, 49-year-old Teresa Fields of Viper, 56-year-old Ricky Taylor of Red Fox, 27-year-old Dusty Shell of Red Fox, 44-year-old Scotty Church of Litcar, and 24-year-old Andrew Hall of Malley were all arrested by Kentucky State Police and Knot County Sheriff's Deputies and lodged in the Kentucky River Regional Jail in Hazard. It was great to have the Knot County Sheriff's Office working with us today. They provided the Sheriff himself come out today, and he had three deputies with him, and so it really just gave us more manpower to safely do this operation. We have an operations plan just in case we do run across problems, but we always do it the safest way. We always make sure we have marked cars, that our troopers are in uniform so they're readily identifiable, and we always have at least two serving the arrest warrants. According to a statement from Kentucky State Police, the arrest resulted from months-long investigations by KSP Street-level detectives. So all 14 indictments, they're all felony charges. Some of them had more than one count of trafficking, but they're all trafficking in the first degree, which means it's a felony drug, and most of these drugs were prescription medication and methamphetamine. Eight people with active arrest warrants from Friday's Roundup are still being sought by police. They include 57-year-old Marvious Sturtevant of Malley, 58-year-old Iva McIntosh of Malley. And E-Step 25 of Litcar, Kimberly Patton, 34 of Kite, Letitia Anberg, 32 of Malley, 47-year-old Gary Adams of Red Fox, 44-year-old John Adams of Red Fox, and 19-year-old Stephen McClain of Red Fox. Anyone with information on the whereabouts of those with outstanding warrants is asked to contact Kentucky State Police post-13 in Hazard at the number on your screen. This is important to us, you know, targeting drug traffickers is important. That really affects everybody in the community when we have that kind of issue.
