Accused Heroin Dealers Arrested
About 30 people have been arrested as part of an Indiana County heroin trafficking crackdown.
Pennsylvania Attorney General Tom Corbett says the investigation has targeted street- and mid-level dealers who buy the drugs in the Pittsburgh area for distribution elsewhere.
Corbett says many of the dealers would buy 50 to 100 bags of heroin at a time in Allegheny and Westmoreland counties and sell them for about $20 each in Indiana County.
He says the investigation was started because of an increase in heroin use by college and high school students in the area.
