Washington County Sheriff's Office issued the following announcement on Apr. 12. 

In February of 2022, the Westside Interagency Narcotics (WIN) team initiated an investigation into a county-wide drug trafficking organization. As a part of that investigation, the Washington County Sheriff’s Office and Beaverton Police Department conducted a traffic stop on a related vehicle, resulting in the seizure of 54 pounds of methamphetamine and 3000 blue “M30” Oxycodone pills believed to be counterfeit pills pressed with Fentanyl. The primary suspect in the investigation was taken into custody for multiple commercial drug offenses, and the investigation is ongoing. 

The Westside Interagency Narcotics ("WIN") Team is an inter-agency task force comprised of personnel from the Beaverton and Hillsboro Police Departments, Washington County Sheriff's Office, Oregon National Guard Counter-Drug Program, and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
