Milton Resident Arrested in Jamaica Plain Cocaine Bust

Prosecutors say Jamaica Plains' Boylston Street Gang had evolved into a high-level drug operation that was largely taken down Monday in a series of raids.

Boston Police and FBI agents executed 16 search and seizure warrants in Boston, Milton and Canton on Monday morning. Fourteen arrests were made, and other charges may follow, prosecutors said in a statement.

The raids, coming after 11 months of investigation, strike a blow at the Boylston Street gang. That group is perhaps best known in Jamaica Plain for its ongoing feud with the Mozart Street crew — bad blood that caused, among other violent incidents, the  in November 2010 that left three men dead.

Here's how Suffolk County District Attorney Dan Conley put it in a press statement about Monday's raids:

"Based on intelligence developed by the Boston Police Youth Violence Strike Force, Special Investigations Unit, and Boston Regional Intelligence Center, we believe many of these individuals are active, driving members of the Boylston street gang, which has been engaged in a deadly feud with its Mozart rivals for almost five years now."
