Acting on a complaint about drug sales in a North Long Beach neighborhood, Long Beach police arrested two known gang members late Wednesday.
Officers assigned to the North Division Directed Enforcement Unit arrested the two men after seeing one drive away from a home in the 6000 block of Myrtle Avenue following what appeared to be a drug deal around 9:30 p.m., said Sgt. Dina Zapalski.
Officers stopped the suspect's car near 61st Street and Brayton Avenue. They arrested 39-year-old Tyrone Glover for possession of marijuana for sales and possession of a firearm, Zapalski said.
After getting a search warrant for the residence on Myrtle, officers arrested the second suspect and found more marijuana and guns, seizing a total of three handguns and one shotgun, the sergeant said.
The name of the second suspect was not immediately available Thursday, Zapalski said.
