Cape Man Caught Selling Cocaine: Barnstable Police

BARNSTABLE, MA — A Dennis man was arrested after Barnstable police said he was selling cocaine on Cape Cod. Natalnail Desousa, 54, was charged with possession with intent to distribute cocaine.

Police said they've been investigating Desousa for two months, and on Thursday, they got search warrants for his car and home. According to police, Desousa made frequent trips to the Boston area to buy cocaine and brought it back to sell on Cape Cod.

Barnstable and Dennis officers and DEA agents searched DeSousa's car and found 15 grams of cocaine packaged in one gram bags, police said. Police said they also found $5,600 cash at DeSousa's home.

DeSousa was released on bail after his arraignment in Barnstable District Court on Friday.
