Pills Found On Known Drug Trafficker In Strongsville

STRONGSVILLE, OH — A wanted man was in the wrong place at the wrong time last Wednesday. The man and a friend walked into Get-Go to order food when they were spotted by a Strongsville officer who ID'd them immediately.

Police said the wanted man had felony warrants for his arrest. Three Strongsville cops arrested him, without incident, outside the gas station.

When they searched the man's possessions, they found 13 prescription pills, $746 in cash, and a Samsung cell phone. Police records indicate the arrested man has a history of drug trafficking.

The man was taken to Strongsville Jail for booking. The pills, cash and cell phone were entered as evidence. The department may charge the man for drug possession, depending on what lab tests say about the confiscated pills.
