CLEVELAND -- Cleveland police said they busted a major drug trafficking ring Wednesday and 16 suspects are now facing charges.

The suspects range in age from 23 to 58. During a news conference, police said the suspects were indicted for allegedly selling in the Garden Valley Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority housing area and throughout the east side of Cleveland.

Cleveland police, CMHA police, the Cuyahoga County Sheriff's Department, the FBI, the Drug Enforcement Agency and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives were all involved in the crackdown Wednesday morning.

Besides stopping a major cocaine dealing operation, police also got a bunch of guns off the streets, including an AK-47.

"Gun violence is top of our list and we'll go after those terrorizing people in this community," said Cleveland Police Chief Michael McGrath.

Police used wire taps of cell phones and undercover buys to collect evidence.

Fourteen of the 16 people indicted have been arrested. Police continue to look for two other suspects.
