A home owned by former Steelers cornerback Deshea Townsend was the scene of a police raid last night. Before I continue, there is no indication that Townsend was involved, or even aware of the criminal activities that were taking place at the Mt. Washington home.

Police took two into custody last night- 33 year old Price Montgomery, and 35 year old James Perrin. Police and DEA agents apprehended the two and also seized 1,500 bricks of heroin, $100,000 in cash and jewelry, two vehicles, Cuban cigars and a live chicken during the massive bust.

Townsend was drafted by the Steelers in the 4th round of the 1998 draft. The cornerback spent 12 seasons with the team, before finishing his career in Indianapolis. He is currently the cornerbacks coach for the Mississippi State University Bulldogs.
