VALLEY — A multi-agency drug investigation resulted in four arrests on Thursday, with officers searching for a fourth suspect.

On November 1 the Alamosa Police Department, Drug Enforcement Administration, Colorado State Patrol, Monte Vista Police Department, and Alamosa County Sheriff’s Office culminated a drug investigation with the arrest of four San Luis Valley residents:

• Angela Fernandez, 33, of Alamosa

• William Westland, 54, of Monte Vista
