Hillsborough County deputies arrested two men accused of transporting 2.25 pounds of cocaine worth more than $110,000.
According to the sheriff's office, investigators identified 32-year-old Tishunz Logan as one of the key members. He reportedly transported large amounts into Hillsborough County from Pasco County. Logan was arrested on Thursday, Jan. 25, when he attempted to flee from deputies, the agency said.
Deputies also arrested 30-year-old Dondre Alexander Daley, who they say was with Logan when he was running away.
