Heroin found stuffed in Build-A-Bear toys

NEW YORK (AP) - July 5, 2009

The arrests late Friday afternoon were announced Saturday by the New York office of the Drug Enforcement Administration along with city and state police.

The authorities say the arrests broke up a drug ring that each week sold hundreds of thousands of small bags of drugs.

The drugs were stamped with such brand names as Barack Obama, Swine Flu and Crime 360.

Authorities say $150,000 in cash was also seized and the drugs were distributed in New Jersey and New York.
