A big drug trafficking organization has been dismantled in Ulster County, authorities say.
Federal and county officials say nine people have been arrested and face various charges in connection to distributing fentanyl and cocaine.
Four kilos of fentanyl were seized. The U.S. attorney for the Northern District of New York put that into perspective by saying it's enough for 200,000 deadly doses.
Officials say this represents a drug pipeline from New York City to the Hudson Valley involving motorcycle gangs.
