Federal agents wrapped up an 18-month investigation into alleged drug dealing with the arrests today of five people, including the operators of the Indian Smoke Shop in Milton and the Little Red Smoke Shop in Tacoma.
A complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Tacoma alleges Billy Miranda Flores, 40, of Puyallup, and his father, Bill Celeya Flores, 59, of Tacoma, sold hundreds of tablets of OxyContin, a powerful narcotic painkiller, at their shops, which are on Puyallup tribal land. The pills went for up to $80 each, according to the charges.
