Authorities say they've broken up a ring of at least eight heroin dealers who operated on both sides of Tampa Bay.
Three people were arrested Tuesday in Pinellas Park and Tampa, and two others remained at large, the FBI said. Another three suspects already had been arrested in previous weeks.
Since the investigation began last summer, investigators have confiscated nearly 200 grams of heroin, worth tens of thousands of dollars on the street, the FBI said. They also have seized $10,000 in cash and several weapons.
