A law enforcement strike force of 25 city, county, state, and parole officers made a 3 a.m. raid on a Baltimore home recently resulting in 11 drug arrests and Washington police say an ongoing investigation promises more arrests to come.

Ramon Gartrell, 34, a Washington drug dealer with multiple convictions, was the target of the raid on the Tate Street home he shared with Tammy Tatum Willis, 27, said Washington Police Chief Investigator Lt. Joe Nelson. A confidential informant had made several controlled buys at that address, leading up to a search warrant.

The raid came at a time when a large number of people were at the Tate Street house. "They were having a party that night," Nelson said. "There were about 60 people over there. All the drugs were found on the ground around the cars, so everyone found around the cars was arrested because at the time we couldn't prove who the drugs belonged to."

Since the arrests, police have had

chance to interview them, Lt. Nelson said, "And some of them wouldn't talk, but some of them would. Somebody has come forward and told us confidentially who the drugs belonged to."

Arrested at the March 18 party were Gartrell and Willis. Also arrested were Sherman Blackmon, 26; Jamarrus Sherrer, 22; Fred Olentric Williams, 32; Tyricas Blackmon, 25; Curtis Milton, 24; Shaka Brantley, 27; James Wallace, 25; Tavaris Ramsey, 28; Allison Wilkinson, 23; and Lazarto Smith, 24.

"They were charged with posses sion of cocaine with intent to distribute, possession of marijuana with intent," Nelson said, "and we also found some suspected Ecstasy, so when the results come back from the crime lab, there will be more charges."

Nelson pointed out that more arrests were coming. "As a result of this intense drug investigation, we have more people to pick up. Chances are, if you sold drugs in the last six months, your name is going to be on a warrant. We've bought drugs all over Washington, from one side to the other, so we'll be knocking on your door soon."
