Drug arrest

KILLINGLY — A Killingly man was arrested on drug charges Nov. 3 after an investigation by troopers assigned to the Troop D Quality of Life Task Force, troopers from Troop D and the Killingly Resident Troopers Office as well as the Statewide Narcotics Task Force East Office.

Francisco “Cisco” Fraustro, 39, of 10B Prospect Ave., was charged with possession of narcotics and possession of narcotics with intent to sell. 

The Troop D Quality of Life Task Force’s investigation was prompted after numerous concerned citizens and business owners expressed concern over the increased narcotic dealing in the downtown Danielson area particularly on the street corners and bars.  

Troopers located Fraustro walking on Commerce Avenue near Sunnyside Farms and seized heroin pre-packaged for sale and a large sum of cash.
