The Columbiana County Drug Task Force (DTF) and Adult Parole Services assisted each other in the execution of a warrant in East Liverpool on Tuesday morning.  

DTF Director Jesse Smith said this is one of the few times when he has to remain tight lipped about the information made available to the public due to the involvement of Adult Parole Services and their inability to release information.  

Smith was able to confirm that Adult Parole and the DTF conducted an operation between 1104 and 1105 St. George St.  

“It was technically two separate investigations, but they were tied together with similar suspects,” Smith said.
