Three people arrested following drug bust in Texas

TEXAS — A months-long narcotics investigation by the Dallas Police Department has resulted in the arrest of three individuals and the seizure of firearms, drugs, and cash from multiple locations across the city.

The operation began in September 2024 when detectives began investigating suspicious activity at a residence in the 4900 block of East Side Avenue.

A search warrant executed at the property uncovered narcotics and evidence pointing to further illegal activity, according to police.

In March 2025, investigators linked the East Side Avenue location to two additional addresses — one in the 4900 block of Terry Street and another in the 8500 block of Park Lane — which were suspected drug distribution and storage sites.

Search warrants executed at both locations yielded significant results.

At the Terry Street address, officers found multiple firearms, drugs packaged for sale, and drug paraphernalia. The Park Lane search resulted in the seizure of additional packaged narcotics and a handgun.

Arrests and Charges:

Christopher Springfield, 32, was charged with four counts of first-degree felony manufacture/delivery of a controlled substance and one count of second-degree felony manufacture/delivery of a controlled substance.
Saray Portillo, 31, was charged with third-degree felony tampering with or fabricating evidence.
Jamie Solorzano, 40, was charged with two counts of third-degree felony manufacture/delivery of a controlled substance.
