STEPHEN SAGE
NARCOTICS NEVADA
On April 8, 2005, Stephen Craig Sage, 31,
wanted by the North Las Vegas Police Department for trafficking a controlled
substance, was arrested by members of Operation FALCON at his mother’s
residence in Las Vegas, Nevada. Team members found Sage, and a
methamphetamine lab he was operating, at his mother’s house and took him
into custody. Highly volatile and toxic precursor chemicals utilized to make
methamphetamines were present in the residence. Sage’s mother and nine year
old daughter were also in the house. Sage’s mother utilized the residence as
a child day care center and anywhere from four to fifteen children are
routinely cared for there each day and would have been exposed to these
dangerous chemicals. Sage was additionally charged with manufacturing
methamphetamine within 500 feet of a business/daycare. |
