Ten suspects have been arrested in connection with a steroid distribution and manufacturing scheme in four Pennsylvania counties, including Lehigh and Northampton.
State Attorney General Tom Corbett will release the details on his department's investigation, dubbed "Operation Roid Runner," at 10:30 a.m. in Harrisburg, which has resulted in arrests connected to an operation involving the use, distribution and manufacture of steroids in Lehigh, Northampton, Dauphin and Cumberland counties.
In a press release, Corbett said the investigation began in the fall of 2007. He said since 2004, the defendants have been responsible for bringing more than $170,000 worth of steroids from China and Mexico into Pennsylvania.
The identities of the defendants will be released at the news conference.
Can't find the press release they refer to online, I suspect they have leaked the story ahead of schedule.
( it's possible this is an old story that has been run by local papers by mistake, we should know in a few hours when the press release fails to appear )
