Yahoo News reported that the, "Ohio police have arrested an alleged drug kingpin, a 17-year-old accused of running a multimillion dollar ring that distributed high-grade marijuana through two school districts and netted $20,000 a month. When cops raided the boy's bedroom at his parents' home, they found over $6,000 in cash, prosecutors said. Authorities have not released the student's name, because he was a 16-year-old minor at the time he committed the alleged drug deals. Warren County Prosecutor David Fornshell said the boy will be tried as juvenile."Authorities had been suspicious of the selling of marijuana last year in the Mason County school district for $300-$400 an ounce. An undercover officer was sent to obtain information about the operation and was able to even purchase drugs within the school system. The undercover officer later discovered the student behind the operation.
Six other adults were arrested in connection with the drug ring. Authorities reported having seized 600 plants with a street value of $3 million. For more on this store please go to the following website:
