Local News in Brief : 2 Houses Used in Drug Dealing Seized
- Share via
Authorities on Tuesday seized two houses that they say were used in the drug dealing by an organization that has controlled the distribution of cocaine in the northeast San Fernando Valley for nearly a decade.
The houses at 11649 Fenton Ave., Lake View Terrace, and 11236 Adelphia St., Pacoima, were taken in what Los Angeles and federal authorities called the start of a joint effort to follow up on raids and arrests at drug houses with civil seizure of the properties.
Los Angeles police said the two houses were operated by the Bryant Organization until they were closed Sept. 29 when a 200-officer task force raided 15 locations where members of the ring lived or sold drugs.
