6 Arrested In Drug Bust Near Carson City Elementary School

CARSON CITY, Nev. (AP) — Carson City authorities say six people have been arrested for allegedly selling drugs near an elementary school.

The Reno Gazette-Journal reports that Sheriff Ken Furlong said Sunday officers conducted a drug bust involving heroin.

Furlong says the suspects are residents of a home across the street from Empire Elementary School in northeast Carson City.

Deputies and officers served a search warrant on the home late last week and found heroin and drug paraphernalia.

Officers then stopped a car leaving the house and found a gram of heroin and other drug-related items.

A woman and three men in the car were arrested.

Two have been released.
