Forty suspected drug dealers accused of participating in a $5 million crystal methamphetamine ring, which operated in southeastern Pennsylvania and parts of New Jersey, are charged following an eleven-month investigation by the Attorney General's Bureau of Narcotics Investigation.
Attorney General Tom Corbett said the investigation, known as "Operation Ice Breaker" began in September 2008 and was part of an ongoing investigation, which took three of the organization's main suppliers and distributors off the streets in "Operation Mexican Ice" earlier this summer.
"Today's arrests are the result of a continuing investigation into the distribution of crystal methamphetamine in southeastern Pennsylvania," Corbett said. "We have not only taken down the main meth dealers in the region, but we have also arrested the leaders and key members of the Philadelphia Chapter of the Outlaws Motorcycle Gang."
