A Menlo, Georgia man was one of over fifty people arrested last week in a narcotic offender “round-up” conducted by the DeKalb County, Alabama Sheriff’s Office, along with several other law enforcement agencies.

DeKalb County Sheriff Nick Weldon said the operation was a planned warrant round up, and also involved saturation patrols and investigating citizen complaints of drug activity. A large portion of the charges were for Distribution of Controlled Substances, which the warrants were obtained by the Narcotics and Interdiction Team after months investigating drug activity in DeKalb County.

A twenty-eight-year-old Menlo, Georgia man was one of those arrested in the round-up.  Michael Anthony Rogers was charged with two counts of unlawful possession of marijuana; unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia, three counts of failure to appear and failure to comply.

Sheriff Weldon said, ” Months of hard work has truly paid off, and our county is a better place because of it! This operation was well organized and exceeded our expectations.”
