More warrants issued
This week’s roundup of alleged drug dealers remains ongoing, authorities said, with arrest warrants issued Wednesday for 11 more suspects.
Those warrants came a day after officers with the Butler County Drug Task Force nabbed 15 suspected low-level dope peddlers from the city, and Butler and Center townships.
The suspected dealers still wanted, like those arrested Tuesday, are accused of primarily trafficking crack cocaine and heroin. Others allegedly sold Suboxone and oxycodone.
The alleged narcotics sales were made mainly to undercover police officers, but also to confidential informants between February 2013 and last month, said Detective Tim Fennell, who heads the county’s drug task force.
One of the wanted suspects, Amber R. Porter, 25, of Butler, turned herself in to authorities Wednesday.
She is charged with delivery, possession with intent to deliver and possession of a controlled substance for the alleged sale of five stamp bags of heroin Nov. 17 in the city.
Porter was arraigned on charges and placed in the Butler County Prison on $50,000 bail.
