Law enforcement officers set their sights on a home on the 8,000 block of Stout St. near Tireman after being tipped off by neighbors. Once inside, they uncovered a stash of drugs and guns - evidence from a suspected drug dealing operation.

The guns discovered inside the home are dangerous weapons, two handguns had their serial numbers scratched off. There were also four long guns and plenty of ammo. The weapons will be tested to see if they're connected to any other crimes. The bust is a success but law enforcement officers have a tough job catching criminals who are getting more sophisticated. The demand for prescription pills is growing. The suspects in this case had a small pharmacy. Police say they were dealing in several different drugs including Vicodin, Adderall, Xanax and ingredients to make the popular club drug "Molly." The three men arrested are 17, 23 and 32 years old. The 32 year old accused of trying to buy drugs had a child with him at the time.

The three suspects are expected to be arraigned Sunday or Monday.
