(CLICKORLANDO.com) – Brevard County authorities arrested eight people on drug charges in a months-long investigation that happened as communities across Central Florida are dealing with an increasing number of people overdosing on heroin mixed with fentanyl.

In an undercover video shared exclusively with News 6 in Orlando, an officer rides in a truck with a man.

The two then exchange a fistful of cash for a bag with a white substance in it.

It is one of a few undercover operations the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office conducted during the course of several months, according to Brevard-Seminole Assistant State Attorney Justin Keen.

“Anytime we can interrupt drug trafficking operations is always a good thing for the community,” Keen said.

The investigation ended with multiple arrests and large quantities of heroin, cocaine and cash confiscated.
