Montgomery County sheriff's deputies arrested a Spring man as part of an ongoing investigation into a steroid manufacturing and distribution ring.
Matthew Emilio Montano, 28, was arrested about 8 p.m. Wednesday after delivering 56 vials of liquid anabolic steroids to an undercover investigator at a shopping center in Spring, deputies said.
He is believed to be a key member of a ring supplying illegal growth hormones to gyms in the area, officials said.
Earlier this year, investigators raided a clandestine laboratory in Montgomery County and uncovered several pounds of powdered and liquid growth hormones, along with chemicals, glassware and other components, sheriff's deputies said.
Montano was charged Thursday with felony delivery of a controlled substance. He is being held without bail at the Harris County Jail.
