“A cumulative effort among law enforcement partners has once again resulted in a massive seizure of deadly drugs,” said NYSP Acting Superintendent Steven G. James. “Not only did this interception save lives, but it also put an end to the violence that is often associated with drug trafficking.  The New York State Police will continue to work vigilantly alongside our partners to put dangerous individuals like Mr. Rondon behind bars.”
