2 Arrested at 'Known Drug Location' in Huntington Station: Police

Suffolk County Police arrested three people after executing narcotics search warrants at two residences Thursday morning, including a home in Huntington Station that is a “known drug location,” police say.

Two residents, 27-year-old Kevin O’Neil and 23-year-old Diana Thode, were arrested after police say they seized oxycodone pills, cellphones and $871 from the 2036 New York Ave. home.

O’Neil was charged with fourth-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance and third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance. Thode was charged with a bench warrant.

An 18-year-old was also arrested after authorities executed a search warrant at his East Islip home, which is located 600 feet from John F. Kennedy Elementary School. Daniel Orlando is accused of distributing heroin and injecting female users, one as young as 15, with heroin. Authorities seized heroin, alprazolam, drug scales and a hypodermic instrument from his 40 Shinnecock Lane home.

"When a 15-year-old is injected with heroin by an adult, it's against their will by nature," Suffolk Police Commissioner Timothy Sini said, according to a Fox 5 report. "This is a disgusting act. It's a barbaric act. And it's clearly a business model."

• Criminal use of a hypodermic instrument
• Criminal sale of a controlled substance in or near school grounds
• Three counts of third-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance
• Four counts of criminal injection of a narcotic drug
• Three counts of endangering the welfare of a child

Orlando will be held overnight at the Third Precinct and O’Neil will be held overnight at the Second Precinct. Both are scheduled for arraignment at First District Court in Central Islip on Friday. Thode was released on bail and will be scheduled for arraignment at a later date.
