I'm on the West Hill and would be interested to know more specifics about the location of the sting, if possible.

Thanks for the question- the sting was conducted north of 260th on Pac Hwy. 15 arrests were made. A full briefing on the results was given to the city council and you can see that on the video archive of the last council meetig on the city website.
