Eighteen months of joint work by police and authorities is wrapping up, culminating in 80 arrest warrants and dozens of arrests.
At least 35 people were taken into custody Wednesday as part of the sting, called Operation Sunrise.
Many people may have noticed a state helicopter in the sky Wednesday morning, or all the extra police activity on city streets. That is because 18 different agencies were involved.
The sweep on Boundary Avenue was just one of several dozen raids that took place in York City.
It was all the result of an intensive investigation to get drugs and gang related criminals off the street.
CBS 21 shot video in a way that does not jeopardize any undercover agents involved.
In all, 80 warrants were issued, close to three dozen people were arrested.
Trooper Rob Hicks with Pennsylvania State Police couldn't release many other details about the sting.
More details are expected to come out Thursday in a press conference scheduled for 11 a.m.
