Deputies raid Waco homes, arrest two men and seize nearly 300 grams of cocaine

WACO, Texas (KWTX) - Nearly 300 grams of cocaine is off the streets of Waco thanks to the work of the McLennan County Sheriff’s Office.

The first warrant was executed in the 400 block of Spring Street on Sept. 30. The sheriff said it resulted in the seizure of more than 250 grams of cocaine.

The drug bust led to the arrest of Waco resident Russell Harris on a charge of Manufacture or Delivery of a Controlled Substance over 200 grams/under 400 grams, a first-degree felony.

Harris is being held at the McLennan County Jail on a $50,000 bond.

The second warrant was executed the morning of Oct. 1 in the 1900 block of 6th Street. That drug bust led to the seizure of more than 40 grams of cocaine at a location within 150 feet of an elementary school.

Authorities also recovered a loaded handgun and more than $1,000 in suspected drug proceeds, the sheriff said.

Waco resident Kevin Greenwood was charged with Manufacture or Delivery of a Controlled Substance over 4 grams/under 200 grams in a Designated Drug-Free Zone, a first-degree felony.

Greenwood’s bond has not yet been set.

“These operations resulted in the seizure of more than 290 grams of cocaine, including both powder and ‘crack’ forms,” the sheriff said. “This amount is sufficient to supply an estimated 1,450 individual users.”
