More than a hundred Maricopa County Sheriff's Office employees conducted an extensive search for contraband Friday at Tent City Jail and the Durango complex jails in Phoenix.
Sheriff Joe Arpaio said the search was in response to authorities finding "many" cigarettes in the jails over the last several days.
Deputies, detention officers and members of the sheriff's posse found a cell phone, radios and several metal objects that could be used as weapons after searching beds, blankets and everything in the tents, Arpaio said.
They also found spice, homemade alcohol and tobacco, said Jeffrey Sprong, a sheriff's office spokesman.
Arpaio said inmates sometimes bring contraband in after working outside the jails during the day.
Authorities also searched visitors and their vehicles for illegal substances. Ten people were arrested, including a woman arrested on suspicion of drug possession, the sheriff's office said.
