MANSFIELD -- A "drug organization" responsible for selling as much as $500,000 worth of cocaine, marijuana and OxyContin in the Mansfield area is out of business following a drug raid Wednesday by state troopers, probation officers and representatives of the Pennsylvania Attorney General's Office.

Police filed charges against 10 current or former Mansfield University students, including three from New York, and the seven who were arraigned on Wednesday went to the Tioga County Prison when they failed to post bail.
