Drugs Seized in Copper City

A six-month investigation has led to the seizure of drugs, guns and money in Copper City.

Detectives from the Upper Peninsula Substance Enforcement Team executed a search warrant at a home in the village today.

They collected methamphetamine, MDMA and numerous illegally obtained prescription drugs. They also picked up two long guns, a small amount of cash, and devices used to facilitate illegal drug activity, including scales and packaging materials.

Officials say the raid was a result of an ongoing investigation into the illegal distribution of methamphetamine and heroin in the Houghton County area.

No arrests have been made at this time. The investigation continues.

UPSET was assisted by MSP-Emergency Support Team, Houghton County Sheriff, MSP-Calumet Post K-9, and MSP-Calumet Post.
