FRANKFORD, Del. - Three Frankford men were arrested Tuesday morning for their involvement in drug dealing and violent crimes, according to Delaware State Police.
Around 6 a.m. Tuesday, members of the Delaware State Police Special Operations Response Team, Sussex County Governor's Task Force and Sussex County Drug Unit executed a search warrant at a home on Armory Road in Frankford.
