Lake Superior Drug & Gang Task Force:
At the beginning of 2005 our department partnered with the Duluth Police Department, Superior Police Department and St. Louis County Sheriff’s Office in assigning one investigator to the Lake Superior Drug and Gang Task Force. The Task Force is funded via the Byrne Grant Program. This Task Force partnership targets drug traffickers, gang elements, and firearms within the Twin Ports community. This task force has had great success since it’s formation in taking violent and dangerous criminals off the streets. It has also functioned in furthering the level of cooperation between all of the law enforcement agencies that partner in the task force.
