A major heroin and methamphetamine drug bust in Indianapolis has a Fort Wayne connection. Eleven people were arrested on federal charges alleging they ran a violent drug-trafficking operation that funneled heroin and methamphetamine from Arizona to Indiana. U.S. Attorney Josh Minkler said Wednesday that one of those arrested, 31-year-old David McMichel, ran the ring from his Indianapolis home while serving a sentence on house detention. The suspects allegedly moved heroin and meth to Fort Wayne and other locations in the region. Their arrests followed a nine-month investigation that confiscated 19 firearms, $160,000 in cash and several pounds of drugs.
