TBI Arrests Three Detroit Men, Seizes Two Pounds Fentanyl Knoxville

Three Detroit men—Michael Siebert, Antwon Siebert, and Roy Hines—were arrested in Knox County, Tennessee, after a search warrant at a Pelleaux Road residence uncovered nearly two pounds of fentanyl, over half a pound of cocaine, methamphetamine, four firearms, and more than $20,000 in cash. The arrests are part of the ongoing '313 Initiative,' a multi-agency law enforcement effort targeting drug trafficking from Detroit into Tennessee, which has resulted in numerous arrests and seizures since 2022. The men face charges including possession with intent to manufacture, sell, or deliver controlled substances, possession of firearms during felonies, and maintaining a dwelling for drug use; all have prior felony convictions in Michigan. Three juveniles found at the scene were taken into custody by the Department of Children's Services. Separately, several men from the Michigan City area were sentenced to prison terms for conspiracy to distribute fentanyl and related firearm charges, highlighting the broader regional challenge of fentanyl trafficking. These coordinated efforts underscore law enforcement's commitment to dismantle drug networks impacting multiple states.
