Six arrested in Roseville, drugs, weapons seized

ROSEVILLE, Calif. — (Jan. 25) Six individuals were arrested Sunday after a traffic violation led police to an apartment where they found methamphetamine, drug paraphernalia and weapons.

According to Dee Dee Gunther, Roseville Police Department public information officer, Roseville officers were on routine patrol on Sixth Street when they passed a white Chevrolet Tahoe Sport Utility Vehicle  late Sunday night.
