SAN ANTONIO – Six people, including one who is believed to be a member of a white supremacist group, were arrested Wednesday afternoon following a drug raid at a home on the city’s Southeast Side.

Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar said about $100,000 worth of high-grade marijuana, methamphetamine, heroin, weapons and heavy-duty military-grade body armor were confiscated from a home in the 100 Block of Harcourt Avenue.

Salazar said deputies with BCSO Covert Operations, BCSO SWAT and members of the TAG-Drug Enforcement Agency executed a search warrant at the home.

Two of the suspects were arrested prior to the raid, two others during a traffic stop and two at the home, Salazar said.

All of the suspects were in their 20s and 30s and will be facing federal drug charges.
