GULFPORT, Miss. (WXXV)- Three Gulfport men are behind bars after a fentanyl bust this week in Harrison County.

Deputies tried to pull the men over Thursday in Pass Christian, leading to a vehicle and foot chase in the city.
All three were eventually taken into custody.
Investigators say they seized more than 250 grams of fentanyl, along with cash believed to be connected to drug distribution.
All three men are now charged with trafficking fentanyl and are being held without bond pending their initial court appearances.
