PIKE COUNTY, KY. (WSAZ) -- A year-and-a-half long investigation has lead to a major drug bust in Pike County.

Inside the homes, detectives say they found a large amount of Oxycodone and Xanax pills with an estimated street value of more than $1,000,000.

Detectives say they also found about $80,000 in cash and several firearms.

KSP Detectives were assisted on scene by Detectives with Operation UNITE as well as agents from the FBI.
