    The lone exception: Just Blaze on Semoran Boulevard in Apopka, where an arrest report shows deputies found Ski Joseph Vasquez, 40, with "2 baggies of cocaine in a prescription bottle" and cutting agents in the barbershop's office during the Sept. 17 sweep. Vasquez was arrested on drug- and gun-related charges after deputies said they found a handgun in his car.

So. Someone in Florida decided that there was a narco gang running drugs through barbershops. So they set up to raid a bunch of barbershops. Then discovered that they were barbershops. And were sitting there in masks and body armor, with flashbangs and automatic weapons.
