Twenty people were arrested Tuesday on drug-related charges in a sweep that was part of dismantling an alleged large drug-trafficking organization centered in the Newhallville section of New Haven and Hamden, federal authorities said in a statement.

The arrests followed an 11-month joint investigation by the FBI New Haven Safe Streets Task Force, the DEA New Haven Task Force, the New Haven and Hamden police departments, the statement said.

The organization allegedly distributed crack cocaine and cocaine throughout the Greater New Haven area.

“In association with the arrest of the defendants, law enforcement officers seized approximately one kilogram of cocaine, more than 150 grams of crack cocaine, approximately $75,000 in cash, six vehicles, two motorcycles and two firearms,” the statement said.

“Today’s round-up represents a collaboration between federal and local law enforcement agencies working together to keep our community safe,” New Haven Police Chief Frank Limon said in the statement. “We are pleased that the U.S. Attorney’s office has charged a number of people with narcotics violations. Through our partnerships we will continue to address drugs, gangs and gun violence as a top priority.”
