Attorney General Shapiro added, “Pennsylvania communities deserve to be free from the threat of illegal drugs and guns on their streets. I’m proud to work with the District Attorney’s Office and York City Police to hold those accountable who violate our drug and firearm laws and keep the people of York City safe.”
