They were allegedly selling, and some were even making steroids.

Now ten men and women, several from our area, have been busted for their reported involvement in a drug ring.

State Attorney General Tom Corbett says Operation Roid Runner

started back in 2007 and today, resulted in the arrest of ten people.

Corbett says those ten men and women brought drugs into Pennsylvania from Mexico and China and were distributing them to people from

Cumberland and Dauphin Counties to Lehigh and Northampton Counties.

The accused allegedly used, sold and even made the steroids amounting to almost $200,000. Former husband and wife, stacy and Eric garonzik allegedly injected their clients with the drugs at their gym, Kinectics in Lemoyne, which is now closed. Corbett says the distribution of steroids is becoming more widespread and adds he and his team are going to stay on the operation.

"As many of you know steroids can be addictive and they can have very many negative side effects," said State Attorney General Tom Corbett. "We need to take these people who distribute this poison off of the streets."

More arrests are expected in this case. Those already caught are out on bail, their preliminary hearing is scheduled for January.
