SAN ANTONIO โ San Antonio police say they have once again recovered drugs and arrested several people at what they describe as a problem house on the Northwest Side. The Dangerous Assessment Response Team, or DART, seized meth and arrested at least five people at the home near Rustic Lane and Sandstone Street. "For aggravated assaults and drug possessions, and it has been a problem in this neighborhood for quite some time,โ said Officer Steve Beilstein, with the San Antonio Fear Free Environment unit.
