A DRUG dealer based in Ilocos Norte and operating in nearby provinces, including Pangasinan has been caught by joint police forces on June 6 in a buy-bust operation at his home, which was serving as an illegal drug den.

Four suspects were also arrest after they were caught red handed while in the middle of sniffing shabu.

Drug paraphernalia consisting of used foils, distorted lighters and tooters were also scattered around the house.
