Feds raid suspected 'pill mill' at Dayton doctor's office

DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) - Federal Agents raided a medical facility on Linden Avenue early Thursday morning.

Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine announced the agents, armed with a federal search warrant, entered a suspected “pill mill” at 2838 Linden Avenue. DeWine said the location was under investigation for more than a year.

"Prescription drug abuse is a very serious problem in Ohio, and we will aggressively investigate any medical facility that shows signs of suspected drug diversion," said DeWine. "Too many Ohioans have died from abusing improperly prescribed pills. We don't want any more families to suffer."
