The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office recently concluded Operation Red Light, targeting the 1200/Out East gang and leading to multiple arrests along with the confiscation of firearms.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — An extensive effort by the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office Gang Unit has culminated in numerous arrests and the capture of various drugs and almost two dozen firearms.

Operation Red Light hit its stride in November 2025 when search warrants were executed at several residences, as reported by the sheriff’s office.

The operation led to the arrest of four individuals as part of a crackdown on a gang that is one of approximately 30 active street gangs in the Jacksonville area, based on 2024 data from the sheriff’s office.

Those arrested include 27-year-old Anthony Williams, 23-year-old Dasaun Williams, 23-year-old Eibe Scott, and 24-year-old Torrance Brooks, facing a collective 48 charges. Most of these charges are directed at Anthony and Dasaun Williams, arising from alleged drug transactions conducted with undercover officers over several months.

The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office disclosed the following items were seized during the operation:

  • 152.4 grams of fentanyl (equal to around 76,000+ lethal doses)
  • 1,222.1 grams of promethazine
  • 226 grams of methamphetamine
  • 115.4 grams of cocaine
  • 420.7 grams of marijuana
  • 22 guns
  • $1,190 in cash
  • Three vehicles

“This investigation took teamwork,” JSO said in a Facebook post. “Our Gang Investigations Unit worked alongside our Narcotics Unit, Crime Gun Intelligence Unit, Technical Support Unit. Computer Forensics Unit, SWAT Team, Community Problem Response Unit, and our District Task Forces. The FBI and the Clay County Sheriff’s Office assisted our teams. Gang members have no place in our city. If you’re committing crimes and violence in our community, know our Gang Investigations Unit will put a stop to it.”
