The investigation began in July after the Cherokee Multi-Agency Narcotics Squad received information that people living at a home on Valley Farm Lane were allegedly trafficking cocaine.
The case took a turn Oct. 1 when Cherokee County deputies stopped a vehicle shortly after it left the home.
Deputies found cocaine, prescription medication and other drugs inside the vehicle, according to investigators.
That information, combined with what investigators had already learned during the months-long investigation, led authorities to obtain a search warrant for the Valley Farm Lane home.

Inside, authorities said they found more suspected cocaine, MDMA and marijuana/THC products.
They also found a pill press, which authorities said can be used to manufacture counterfeit pills, along with other drug paraphernalia.
