A major drug trafficking bust ended with more than a dozen people arrested in Steuben County.

Operation Free Fall netted 13 people in all, on 20 charges.

This roundup was similar to one during the summer called Operation Safe Summer. But this time, instead of a massive sting operation throughout the county, arrests were made over a period of time.

“What we are taking is a dealer off the street – someone who’s out there every day dealing drugs. So the long term quantity is tremendous. I can tell you one of these cases, the A-felony math case involves more than two ounces of methamphetamine,” said Steuben County District Attorney Brooks Baker.

More arrests are expected.
