More Than 500 Grams of Drugs Plus Four Guns Seized in Sunbeam Area Bust
July 18, 2026
More than 500 grams of illegal drugs plus four guns are off our streets after our Narcotics Unit detectives shut down a drug house off Sunbeam Road.


Last month, Jacksonville Sheriff's Office (JSO) detectives received information that a house on Ragsdale Drive was being used to sell drugs. An investigation was launched, quickly confirming known violent criminals were using the house to push poison. A search warrant was issued for the house, and on Wednesday, July 1, 2026, JSO's Narcotics Unit and SWAT Team served the warrant.

The following was discovered:
  • 18.3 grams of Fentanyl
  • 353.1 grams of Methamphetamine
  • 95.1 grams of Powder Cocaine
  • 44.1 grams of Crack Cocaine
  • 4.6 grams of MDMA
  • 19.3 grams of Marijuana
  • 3 handguns
  • 1 rifle
  • $7,522 in cash

Cornelius Bell, 46, and Ronald Craven, 39, were arrested.

This investigation began thanks to a tip from the community. To report suspicious activity, citizens are asked to call 904.630.0500 or email JSOCrimeTips@jaxsheriff.org.
