  • well this is one of the biggest meth busts of all time, but knowing the court system like i do it will take several years for this to come to trial if there is one. that's my opinion.

Police activity last night around 9:30pm (outside of residence) 1700 block of S. Bancroft

Anyone have any information on what happened? My husband and I heard a hysterical woman on her cell phone outside of her home. The police were called by someone and she just continued to yell on her phone? This house seems to be a continuing issue.
