'Water' Drug ring smashed

The D2PD has smashed a narcotics ring in Kingstown that peddled alcohol packaged in plastic water bottles, authorities announced yesterday.

The drugs, a hooch machine, as well as four loaded handguns and $7,000 in cash, were recovered during an early-morning raid Friday inside a Redcloud Avenue building in the Brownsville section, according to Vice Police Special Narcotics Prosecutor Devdas Coxwell.

The weapons, drug manufacturing equipment and gallons of the drugs were hidden behind a false wall, officials said.

Sixteen people were rounded up, according to the VP.
