Seven people in Pana have been arrested in recent weeks thanks to covert drug investigations conducted by the Central Illinois Enforcement Group. The task force has members from the Christian County Sheriff’s Office, Pana Police Department, and Taylorville Police Department.

Christian County Sheriff Bruce Kettelkamp says these officers work tirelessly to get drug dealers off the streets.

Kettelkamp says people may try come in to the county and take the jobs of those dealers that have been arrested, but he has a warning for all drug dealers that work in Christian County.

Kettelkamp says there may be some more arrests to come out of these investigations.
