Story:
Manhattan (11/10/10) - Four people have been arrested in connection with an alleged heroin ring in the Theater District.
Local and federal agents Wednesday seized an estimated 30 pounds of heroin worth $6.5 million from an apartment on 43rd Street between Ninth and 10th Avenues.


The four suspects have been charged with first-degree possession of a controlled substance.


Authorities say it is the biggest heroin mill broken up in Manhattan in more than a decade.


The suspects, who were followed by the DEA for a long time, had only moved into the apartment about 10 days ago. They did not have any furniture and covered the windows with dark cloth.


Brennan said agents set up surveillance at 417 West 43rd Street, and when an agent approached a suspect who was carrying a carrying a garbage bag of small glassine envelopes, the suspect ran off.


The suspect was caught and then members of the federal Drug and Alcohol Enforcement Agency and the New York Drug Enforcement Task Force used a battering ram to break through the apartment door. The apartment was raided and the other suspects were taken into custody.
