Officials said on October 2, 2024, the Milford Police Department’s Drug Unit concluded a drug-related investigation with the arrest of a Milford woman, Tecoreulla Gale, 46, of Milford. Acting on the investigation, detectives, with the support of the Milford Police Department’s Patrol and K9 Unit, executed a search warrant at a residence in the 500 block of West Street in Milford.
