SPRINGFIELD, Ohio (WDTN) - The U.S. Marshals moved across Clark County Thursday morning rounding up suspected drug dealers.

They arrested about a dozen suspects, including a 66-year-old grandmother they found at a Southern Avenue home. Marshals said the woman was selling drugs out of her house.

Other suspects were just as surprised to wake up to a team of Marshals, BCI agents, and deputies at their door.

The arrests came as the result of a six month long joint investigation by the sheriff's office and state attorney general's office.

Officials called the investigation and arrests Operation Fall Harvest.
