ALEXANDRIA, VA — The FBI conducted a huge roundup of suspected gang members throughout Northern Virginia as well as the District Wednesday afternoon, and 28 people face gun and drug charges as a result.

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms and Explosives (ATF) along with the FBI in collaboration with a number of federal, state, and local law enforcement officials — more than 300 agents were involved — rounded up the individuals as part of Operation Tin Panda, which began in the spring.

The operation involved “jointly investigating area Blood gangs involved in violent crime and other criminal activity in Northern Virginia,” according to a statement from the U.S. Justice Department.

“During the course of this investigation, more than 30 individuals throughout Virginia, Maryland, the District of Columbia, and California, who were illegally selling firearms and controlled substances or were involved in other criminal acts, have been arrested,” the statement reads. “Prior to search warrants executed today, Operation Tin Panda resulted in the recovery of over 71 firearms and approximately 1,292 grams of cocaine base, 4,408 grams of cocaine, 23,838 grams of marijuana, 2,152 grams of crystal methamphetamine, 815 grams of heroin, and 36,075 grams of THC. 

During search warrants executed today, law enforcement seized more firearms, heroin, and other controlled substances.”

Of those arrested, 22 face federal charges while six face state charges.
