Volusia sheriff’s deputies and detectives wrapped up a series of undercover narcotics investigations this week, with 8 street-level drug dealers arrested and 6 more wanted on charges of selling heroin, methamphetamine and fentanyl in West Volusia.

The arrests included one drug dealer (Rene Roque) who was living in the woods near the DeBary neighbor of Saxon Woods. In February, a group of kids playing in a field near the woods found the body of a woman who was later determined to have suffered a fentanyl and methamphetamine overdose shortly after leaving Roque’s campsite.
