HAMILTON — A search warrant and three traffic stops Tuesday, Sept. 1, in Butler and Clermont counties led to three arrests and confiscation of more than $200,000 worth of heroin in the largest amount of the drug ever seized in Butler County.

The arrests came after a weeklong collaborative investigation by the Butler and Clermont county sheriff’s offices, Butler County Sheriff Richard K. Jones said at a news conference late Tuesday afternoon. He called the drugs the “largest amount ever for any agency in this county.â€
