Three arrested on heroin, cocaine trafficking charges

Two other people were arrested on less severe drug charges following the investigation by the Consolidated Narcotics Unit, a cooperative effort of local law enforcement agencies.

Authorities said they seized a street value of $4,000 worth of heroin, about $4,200 worth of cocaine and more than $15,000 in cash and other assets from three different Reno locations.

Jose Tapia, 25; Francisco Perez-Garcia, 23; and Juan Pablo Corchado-Partida, 24, were all charged with drug trafficking.

Each also was charged with various other drug charges. All were being held on more than $100,000 bail.

In addition, Jade R. Majtan, 20, of Reno, was arrested on charges of heroin possession, possession of a hypodermic device, child endangerment and maintaining a residence for selling a controlled substance. Her bail was set at $8,000, authorities said.

Gayle E. Bailey, 46, was charged with the possession of a hypodermic device, child endangerment and failing to change an address as an ex-felon.
