ST. CLOUD, Minn. – A significant drug bust occurred in St. Cloud as the Central Minnesota Violent Offender Task Force executed a search warrant on Wednesday, uncovering thousands of fentanyl pills. The task force had been investigating the sale of M-Box 30 pills for several months, which have been linked to overdose deaths in the area.
Following the search, a 21-year-old man was arrested and taken to the Stearns County Jail for several potential charges. Officers seized ammunition and approximately 4,200 pills from the apartment. The arrested individual, who has a prior felony conviction and is prohibited from owning guns or ammunition, is also facing charges related to a separate drug dealing case in the area. The St. Cloud Police Department assisted the task force in making the arrest.
