The Pima County Sheriff’s Department works year-round to prevent illegal drugs from hitting the streets. Since January, the sheriff’s department has had a hand in seizing drugs with a street value worth nearly $3.5 million. It includes everything from heroin to meth and fentanyl pills. Lorraine Rivera saw their efforts firsthand and rode with the department’s Border Interdiction Unit.
