<\/p>\nTAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) \u2014 Three people are facing RICO charges after law enforcement reportedly discovered a narcotics organization being run out of a local business.<\/p>\n
According to the Tampa Police Department, officers began their investigation after responding to community concerns of illicit drug activity in 2025.<\/p>\n
Undercover operations revealed a large-scale drug operation operating out of Vicky\u2019s Supermarket, also known as Royal Supermarket, located at 420 E. Floribraska Ave.<\/p>\n
Police said the store\u2019s owners, their family members, and employees were conducting narcotics sales inside and outside the business. Investigators also linked two nearby homes on East Floribraska Avenue to the criminal enterprise.<\/p>\n
TPD secured court-authorized search warrants for multiple locations, which tactical teams executed on Aug. 25, 2025.<\/p>\n
This resulted in immediate arrests and the seizure of multiple firearms, thousands of dollars in cash, and a significant volume of illegal drugs, including fentanyl, methamphetamine, cocaine, and synthetic marijuana.<\/p>\n
TPD, along with the Hillsborough County Sheriff\u2019s Office, conducted a secondary search at the business owner\u2019s home in Seffner. Detectives uncovered additional firearms and \u201ca heavy volume\u201d of trafficking-weight narcotics.<\/p>\n
Police eventually received approval from the State Attorney\u2019s Office to level Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) charges against the suspected leaders of the organization, officially classifying the group as an organized crime family.<\/p>\n
