Six people were arrested in a Friday morning police raid in south Wichita that turned up rifles, stolen handguns, drugs and more than $68,000 in cash.

All of the suspects, who range in age from 23 to 61, live at the home in the 6000 block of South Hydraulic, Wichita police spokesperson Chad Ditch said. The SWAT team conducted the raid around 5:35 a.m. after the south bureau community response team “developed information that a residence . . . was involved in the distribution of Methamphetamines,” Ditch said in a new release.
