Posted by Max Brantley on Wed, Sep 12, 2012 at 8:47 AM
The U.S. attorney's office sends word of an announcement later today of "significant" indictments and arrests of an East Arkansas drug ring, apparently centered on Jonesboro.

UPDATE: KAIT has the jump on the story — arrest of 27 in a meth operation. 30 were indicted; three remain at large. Here's the U.S. attorney's summary.
