The Prince William County police announced Monday that two 19-year-olds from Manassas have been arrested by a regional narcotics task force.

The pair are among 21 people rounded up by the task force, which was formed to combat drug use and addiction among young people in the region; five others are still at large. Operation Growing Pains, which began in February, involved detectives from the police departments of Prince William County, Manassas and Manassas Park.

The two arrested on Friday were Isaiah Augustus Bolling, of 9012 Coriander Court, who is charged with the distribution of a Schedule I or II narctic, and Victor Anthony Ceglie, of 8400 Rosebay Lane, charged with distribution of marijuana, the Prince William police said.

The police on Friday announced the arrest of 19 others in Operation Growing Pains (for the list, click here).

The five suspects still at large include:

• Zachary Grey Magerkorth, 19, 9603 Ramsey Court, Manassas; wanted for distribution of marijuana.
• Logan Michael Pack, 18, 8228 Roxborough Loop, Gainesville; wanted for distribution of a Schedule I or II Narcotic.
• Stanley Anthony Robertson, 34, 15288 Lodge Terrace Court, Woodbridge; wanted for distribution of a Schedule I or II Narcotic.
• Luke William Stowe, 20, 1410 Deerfield Lane, Woodbridge; wanted for felony distribution of marijuana.
• A juvenile female, 16 of Gainesville; wanted for Conspiracy to Distribute a Schedule IV Narcotic.

The murder in November of a 16-year-old student at Woodbridge High School prompted local authorities to launch the operation, according to WTTG-TV Channel 5.

The task force also seized narcotics used by young people in the region, including marijuana, marijuana “wax,” mushrooms and prescription medications, according to media reports. It executed search warrants at four locations - in Manassas, Woodbridge, Gainesville and Bristow.

The goal of the operation was to deter drug use among teens and young adults, Prince William police said. When an arrest was made, those who sought help for drug use or addiction issues were provided with the necessary resources.
