PHOENIX — Investigators with the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office recently seized 10,000 Fentanyl pills connected to a suspected drug operation in Phoenix.
According to court documents, investigators received information regarding a drug deal set to take place on Nov. 5, 2019 in a store parking lot near 87th Avenue and Camelback Road on the Valley's west side. Those allegedly involved in the drug deal apparently became suspicious, according to court documents, after noticing a large number of vehicles and began to drive away.
When that happened, MCSO investigators and agents with the Department of Homeland Security moved in. They arrested a man named Eduardo Levya.
Detectives found four bags of Fentanyl, estimated to weigh three pounds and worth $80,000, in his vehicle, according to court documents. Levya was booked into jail and charged with narcotics possession for sale.
