PROVIDENCE --
Millions of dollars worth of heroin was taken off the streets of Providence in what police said Friday was the largest heroin bust in Rhode Island history.
A joint task force of federal, state and local law enforcement officers has taken a record amount of heroin off the streets of Providence.
Two alleged high level drug dealers are in custody.
"These arrests and what we believe is the largest seizure of heroin in Rhode Island's history -- 19 kilograms with a street value of approximately $4.5 million -- represents another step forward in our joint and collective efforts against violent crime," U.S. Attorney Peter Neronha said.
