Data released by the Colorado Bureau of Investigation this week showed a drop in DUI and drug-related arrests, but that doesn’t mean drug trafficking in Mesa County has slowed, officials say. Steven Knight, with the Drug Enforcement Agency’s Grand Junction office, said he works with partners at the state and local level on the Western Colorado Drug Task Force and drug trafficking has not decreased in the area. “We’re in daily contact with all these drug task forces,” Knight said. “We’re all working the drug cases together simultaneously. We’re not seeing a decline in drug trafficking, not anything significant, and in fact right now just recently it seems to be on the uptick.”
