(KNSI) – The CEE-VI Drug and Gang Task Force seized over 800 fentanyl pills during a raid in Willmar on Wednesday.

Also uncovered were a half ounce of cocaine, two handguns, a rifle, and cash. Two of the guns were ghost guns, which means the firearms have no serial number since they are made at home from kits that are sold online. The untraceable parts can be bought without a background check.

The raid happened on the 400 block of NW 30th Street. The Task Force arrested two people in connection with the raid and more arrests are anticipated, according to a press release.

Assisting at the scene were personnel from the Kandi-Meeker SWAT Team and the Willmar Police Department SWAT Team.
