Feinstein was also charged with possession of heroin after detectives executed two search warrants and found drugs in addition to cash connected to the robbery. He is being held at the ACI as a bail violator. Court records show he was out on bail pending a Superior Court felony arraignment in January for a Cranston police charge of narcotics possession and tampering with a motor vehicle. He is due to return to court on Jan. 12 for a bail violation hearing.
