Steele County considers itself very fortunate to be affiliated with this group. We are currently supplying one Board member and financial assistance for an agent from our area. This unit allows us to share manpower and resources in the area of narcotics interdiction and large felony level cases. In addition to the above agencies, our agents work regularly with the MN State Patrol, BCA, ATF, DEA and ICE.
This unit also focuses on gang activity. You can contact the Steele County Sheriff’s Office if you would like to arrange for a presentation on gang education. |
