Twenty-three people are indicted in an alleged drug trafficking operation involving crack cocaine, ecstasy and marijuana.
The indictment unsealed last week and announced Monday also includes federal charges of firearms possession, money laundering and carjacking.
According to the indictment in U.S. District Court, from 1999 through May 6, 2008, 22 of the defendants conspired to distribute 50 or more grams of cocaine base, 5 kilograms or more of cocaine hydrochloride, as well as ecstasy and marijuana.

The indictment comes after an investigation by federal and local authorities.
