17,000 fentanyl pills seized in Twin Cities from man seen as high in 'drug distribution hierarchy'

MINNEAPOLIS — Back-to-back law enforcement raids in the Twin Cities yielded more than 17,000 pills of suspected fentanyl and $45,000 in cash, while a St. Cloud man is charged on allegations of holding "a high position in the drug distribution hierarchy."

Thomas A. Gentry Jr., 34, of St. Cloud, was charged Thursday in Anoka County District Court with five felony drug counts and misdemeanor providing false information to police in connection with the seizures Tuesday at a rented storage unit in Maple Grove and a home in Coon Rapids.

Gentry remains jailed in lieu of $750,000 bail. He's due in court on Jan. 12. Court records do not list an attorney for him.
