 Five Mexican nationals are under arrest in Montgomery County, Pa. as authorities break up what they describe as an international drug and prostitution trafficking ring that stretched from Mexico to Norristown.

Local leaders and county commissioner’s became aware of the problem after Lawrence’s paper reported the alleged incidents and an investigation was put into place. His paper continued to report such activities and other stories in the Twin City American Indian communities years after.
