Several drug arrests kept the Escambia County Sheriff’s Department busy last week after a particularly productive grand jury session.

Sheriff Grover Smith said several arrests were the result of a busy session of the Escambia County grand jury.

“We had a number of arrests after the grand jury met,” Smith said. “Typically, we will have a large number of arrests after they meet. This was a particularly productive session of the grand jury.”
