Authorities were conducting the search warrant in connection to a wide-ranging narcotics investigation being conducted by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, Zurlo said. They confiscated multiple kilograms of cocaine, about 50 handguns and rifles, and “hundreds of thousands” of fentanyl pills from three other sites connected to the investigation, he said.
