May 17, 2008

Cops busted 41 people in connection with selling drugs at a Queens housing project, police said yesterday.

During a six-month NYPD probe at the Woodside Houses in Woodside, undercover cops were able to buy heroin, cocaine and marijuana 150 separate times, police said.

Half the drug sales took place within 100 feet of three schools in the neighborhood, police said.

On one occasion, a cop was able to buy a 9 mm handgun for $300.

Of the 41 people charged, police said 36 have been arraigned.

Cops said several of those arrested are Crips gang members.
