Los Fresnos police uncover the biggest drug ring the city has ever seen.

The investigation stems from three weeks ago when officers pulled over a vehicle for a traffic violation.

Police told Action 4 the driver had drugs in his car which prompted an investigation.

That investigation led police to uncover several stash houses who had drugs, weapons and hundreds of stolen items.

Eleven people were arrested and officers told us more arrests are in the works.

Right now officers are working to find the rightful owners of some of the items seized.
