TEXARKANA, Ark. (AP) - At least 24 people remain at large in connection with a drug trafficking investigation in western Arkansas.

Seventy-six people are accused of selling crack cocaine and methamphetamines near schools, housing projects and a playground in Texarkana.

The FBI says authorities have arrested 42 people on federal charges and three people on state charges in "Operation State Line Sweep." U.S. Attorney Conner Eldridge announced results of the year-long investigation Tuesday.

On Wednesday, the agency posted photos of 24 suspects still at large on the website of its Little Rock office Wednesday. A spokesman says investigators don't have photos of some others still at large.
