MUSKEGON COUNTY, MI – Police have arrested 10 men suspected of drug trafficking in the Muskegon area in an investigation that began with an October 2019 fatal overdose in Norton Shores, records show.
Shortly after the death, a suspected dealer warned an undercover police officer, posing as a heroin buyer, about the potential dangers of the drug he was selling. It later tested positive for fentanyl, a powerful and dangerous synthetic opioid, along with heroin, an investigator wrote in court records.
