A months-long investigation by the Appalachian Regional Drug Enforcement Office (ARDEO) and local partners leads to the arrest of four people. 

According to ARDEO, the investigation known as "Operation A Team" culminated when officers executed several search warrants and traffic stops on July 21. 

Law enforcement seized approximately 5 pounds of methamphetamine, LSD and two firearms. 

"We continue to try to work with our partners in law enforcement to eradicate the drug problem in the Northeast Georgia area," ARDEO Special Agent in Charge Trent Hillsman said in a phone interview with AccessWDUN. "Without their assistance, we would not be able to operate and to make these arrests."

Trevor Wade Souther, 21, of Lula, was arrested on three counts of Trafficking Methamphetamine. 

Derek Malcolm Daniel, 35, of Dahlonega, was charged with two counts of Trafficking Methamphetamine.
