NYPD Shocker; 30 Arrested in Federal Steroid Sting
Sources Say Drug Bust Connected to Major FL Raid Involving Pro-Athletes

Sources tell CW11 30 NYPD officers are being arrested in connection with a steroid ring involving the use of the substance, considered a narcotic, and possibly its distribution. The officers being sought work in precincts throughout Brooklyn and Staten Island and several are already in police custody.
According to sources the case was developed federally by the Drug Enforcement Agency, which in February launched a major raid in Orlando, Florida, seizing volumes of evidence and arresting its owners. Those files contained names of clients including Scott Schoeneweis of the New York Mets, Rick Ankiel of the St. Louis Cardinals and boxer Evander Holyfield. Even at that time, authorities indicated more arrests could come.
"Somewhere down the road there may or may not be arrests in this case," Carl Metzger of Orlando's Metropolitan Bureau of Investigation said.
The steroid investigation reached into New York last month in Queens, but no one expected that it would lead to the NYPD.
According to sources, at least 5 weeks ago the NYPD Internal Affairs division was contacted by the DEA. The culmination of their investigation is likely the biggest takedown of NYPD cops in the history of the city.
In addition, sources close to the investigation say the sting includes a high ranking member of the NYPD whose name the CW11 is withholding.
