Suspected Warminster Heroin Dealer Busted, Cops Say

An accused heroin dealer was arrested this week in Warminster after an investigation by local police and the FBI, authorities announced.

Police said Malachi Messimer, 29, was dealing heroin laced with fentanyl, marijuana, and pills that have yet to be identified out of his Nemoral Street home. He has been charged with delivery of controlled substance and related charges and is currently being held in Bucks County prison.

The charges follow a search of Messimer's home along the 200 block of Nemoral Street after "numerous" complaints and tips that he was dealing drugs at the residence, police allege.

As part of the investigation, the Warminster Police detectives conducted controlled purchases of heroin form Messimer. The heroin later tested positive for Fentanyl, authorities said.

In addition to the drugs, police said they located paraphernalia indicative of drug use and trafficking, as well as a loaded firearm, which is believed to be stolen. "Several other arrests are pending for other occupants of the residence, including the owner of the home," police said.

Messimer is being held at Bucks County prison in lieu of $100,000 bail. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for July 5, court documents show.
