Osceola County Sheriff’s operation ‘Spring Purge’ totals 62 arrests in April

A month-long enforcement initiative by the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office led to 62 arrests in April as deputies targeted violent offenders, drug crimes, human trafficking, and other community threats, the agency announced Wednesday.

Dubbed Operation "Spring Purge," the effort involved coordinated actions by several specialized units, including the Osceola Narcotics Investigative Bureau (ONIB), Narcotics Enforcement Team (NET), Tactical Anti-Crime Unit (TAC), and Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC), among others. Investigators conducted surveillance, proactive patrols, and coordinated takedowns throughout the county.
