A six-month narcotics investigation in Jacksonville's Grand Park neighborhood ended in a coordinated sweep on Feb. 20, with the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office saying its Narcotics Unit and federal partners took apart a drug-trafficking organization in one morning. Investigators arrested an alleged major trafficker and five brothers and reported seizing cocaine, methamphetamine and marijuana, along with firearms, cash, luxury jewelry and vehicles in what the agency called a multi-location takedown that hit four addresses at once with SWAT teams and federal agents.

According to the Jax Sheriff's Office on X, detectives seized roughly 711 grams of powder cocaine, 654 grams of crystal methamphetamine and more than 10 pounds of marijuana. The post says officers also recovered nine firearms, including one reported stolen, more than $350,000 in cash, two vehicles and two necklaces valued at about $60,000. JSO said search warrants were served at four locations in the Grand Park area during the Feb. 20 operation.
The sheriff's message on social media was blunt: "If you're dealing drugs in Jacksonville, we're coming for you." In the same update, the agency said it arrested Jaron Wright, Jamon Wright and Chaun Floyd on felony charges, while Ahmed Wright, Willie Wright and Ronyeah Wright were booked on misdemeanor counts, per the Jax Sheriff's Office on X. Officials did not immediately release information about court dates or bond amounts.
How investigators built the case
JSO said the bust capped months of surveillance and community tips, with the agency's Narcotics Unit working alongside federal partners that included the DEA and ATF, as well as JSO and DEA SWAT teams. The Grand Park sweep is the latest in a string of large narcotics crackdowns in Jacksonville, and prior takedowns have produced similarly large seizures. Detectives said they plan to keep following leads as evidence from the Feb. 20 searches is processed.
Legal steps and next steps
Several of the arrested individuals face felony counts that could lead to state-level prosecutions if formal charges are filed, while others were booked on misdemeanors. The sheriff's office emphasized that arrests are allegations and that suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty. Investigators said they will continue developing the case as they analyze the drugs, guns and other evidence.
JSO asked anyone with information related to narcotics activity to call 904-630-0500 or submit an anonymous tip at 1-866-845-TIPS. The agency posted a full summary of the Grand Park takedown on its social channels.
