The National Drug Control Agency (DNCD) has announced the confiscation of 229 packages of what is thought to be cocaine in Hato Mayor, which could be linked to the 345 packages confiscated last Monday, 13 November 2017 in the National District.
DNCD spokesman, Carlos Devers, explained that the DNCD agents and public prosecutors carried out a raid on a rural community in the province of Hato Mayor and found the drugs in a truck.
Two Dominicans were arrested as they were trying to flee the scene and the investigations are ongoing to look for other members of the supposed gang.
In addition to the drugs, the truck, a car, a motorcycle and other property were also seized.
