EAST CHICAGO, Ind. (WLS) -- East Chicago police have released details of a recent drug bust involving eight people.

Police say a SWAT team raid in late October uncovered an alleged drug operation in the 4500-block of Magoun Street. Four adults and four juveniles were arrested.

Police are also looking into charges against the landlord of the home for renting to suspected drug dealers.
