South Florida brothers were arrested for illegal drug possession and trafficking.
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) recently arrested 29-year-old Alexander Sanchez and 29-year-old Anthony Sanchez, of Hialeah, on one count, each, of cocaine trafficking, possession of cocaine, and money laundering, as well as four counts of possession of cocaine with the intent to sell.
These arrests are the result of a State Assistance for Fentanyl Eradication (S.A.F.E.) investigation. The investigation began when the South Florida S.A.F.E. Task Force received information that the Sanchez brothers were selling narcotics in the Miami-Dade County area.
S.A.F.E. Task Force agents, along with Hialeah Police Department, conducted a controlled operation and took the Sanchez brothers into custody.
Subsequently, FDLE agents and the FBI conducted a search warrant at the Sanchez’s residence, which resulted in the seizure of more than 480 grams of cocaine, drug paraphernalia, a rifle, ammunition and more than $58,000 in cash.
According to law enforcement, Alexander and Anthony Sanchez were booked into the Turner Guilford Knight (TGK) Correctional Center.
The South Florida S.A.F.E. Task Force consists of agents and detectives with the FDLE, Doral Police Department, Florida International University Police Department, Hialeah Police Department, Medley Police Department, Miami Police Department, Miami Springs Police Department and Sweetwater Police Department.
