SFPD Seizes Large Quantity of Fentanyl, Firearm, $25,000 in Oakland Raid 25-123
Officers arrested three suspects and seized scales and other drug equipment
Officers with the San Francisco Police Department executed a search warrant on Wednesday at an Oakland residence and seized nearly 180 grams of fentanyl, 57 grams of methamphetamine, and 16 grams of cocaine intended to be sold on the streets of San Francisco.
The operation also yielded more than $25,000 in U.S. currency, a fentanyl press and scales, an unserialized firearm also known as a “ghost gun,” and ammunition.
The joint operation occurred on the 2800 block of 8th Avenue in Oakland and included the San Francisco Police Department’s Narcotics Division, the U.S. Army National Guard, and the San Francisco Sheriff’s Office.
SFPD arrested Oakland residents Jahir Banegas Hernandez, 20, Axel Josue Casco Rosales, 18, and Darwin Omar Martinez, 21, on drug-related and child endangerment charges and booked them at Santa Rita Jail.
During the search warrant service, a toddler was located in the residence and subsequently released to a child welfare worker. An adult female was also detained for the investigation. Through the course of the investigation, officers placed the female under arrest for warrant violations and booked her at Santa Rita Jail. She was identified as 21-year-old Dayan Canales Cruz of Oakland.
The operation stemmed from an investigation by the San Francisco Police Department Narcotics Unit and is the latest major enforcement effort that is part of the city’s Drug Market Agency Coordination Center (DMACC).
Since launching DMACC in May 2023, SFPD officers have seized over 412 kilos of narcotics, including 151 kilos of fentanyl. Additionally, officers have made over 10,000 arrests, including 2,230 arrests of drug dealers.
Although arrests have been made, this investigation remains open and active. Anyone with information is asked to contact the SFPD at 1-415-575-4444 or Text-A-Tip to TIP411 and begin the message with SFPD.
