AG Sunday, District Attorneys Announce Results of 'Operation Clean Sweep,' Interdiction of Drug Trafficking Between Philadelphia and Surrounding Counties

Pennsylvania Attorney General Dave Sunday, Montgomery County District Attorney Kevin R. Steele, Bucks County District Attorney Jennifer Schorn and Delaware County District Attorney Jack Stollsteimer announce the results of “Operation Clean Sweep” — a targeted law enforcement collaboration that interdicted drug trafficking from Philadelphia to outlying counties.

During the two-phase operation in September and October, law enforcement arrested about 100 individuals, and seized 12 illegal firearms, along with quantities of fentanyl/heroin, methamphetamine, cocaine/crack cocaine, PCP, oxycodone, suboxone, Xanax, psilocybin mushrooms, codeine, and marijuana.

The street value of the narcotics is estimated to be more than $365,000.

The strategic objective of the operation was to bring together numerous law enforcement resources from the Office of Attorney General; Bucks, Delaware and Montgomery county detective bureaus; Pennsylvania State Police and Philadelphia Police Department to target the flow of illegal controlled substances from known drug trafficking areas in Philadelphia, primarily Kensington, to the three collar counties.
