Drug bust snares dozens

Three police cars pulled to the side of leaf-lined Simmons Road in Sterling. Two Auburn Police Department officers and one state police investigator - all in plain clothes - stepped out of an unmarked state police car. The trio put on bulletproof vests and then shirts or jackets identifying them as law enforcement.

Their driving companions - two Cayuga County sheriff's deputies in marked cars with back-seat cages ready to hold the wanted - were already in uniform and garbed for action.

New York State Police Investigator Jared Proper, APD officers Brian Blanchfield and Brandy Quigley, and sheriff's deputies Matt Hare and Jack Powers were on their way to execute two warrants in the first round of arrests in a large-scale drug bust Wednesday. By the end of the day, about 30 suspects were arrested for alleged involvement in two different drug rings under investigation since August.
