Steamboat Springs — Three people from Connecticut were arrested on drug charges Thursday.
Grand, Routt and Moffat Narcotics Enforcement Team, in conjunction with the Steamboat Springs Police Department, apprehended Forrest Runnette, 35, of Norwalk, Conn., Anthony Gesualdi, 34, of Stanford, Conn., and Cyrus Clark, 33, of Darien, Conn., at the Sheraton Resort.
Runnette was reportedly harassing people at the hotel when police detained him and noticed he was under the influence of a drug, said Dwight Murphy, GRAMNET task force commander.
