YAKIMA, Wash. (AP) — Investigators say they made several arrests and seized $37,000 in cash during raids in Yakima County last week.

The Yakima Police Department says agents also found four guns, a half-pound of Mexican brown heroin and several ounces of crystal methamphetamine. The drugs were worth about $36,000.

Drug and gang units served the search warrants at three homes in Yakima, one near Mabton and another northeast of Selah.

The Yakima Herald reports that at one of the Yakima homes, officers said they arrived to find two men just starting to install a security monitoring system.
