PLAINFIELD — A Brooklyn man was arrested on drug charges Sept. 30 following a traffic stop.
Charlie Clavel, 43, of 29 Tiffany St., was charged with possession of narcotics and possession of narcotics with intent to sell.
Members of the Troop D – Quality of Life Task Force spotted a vehicle in the area of I-395 near exit 87 in Plainfield and recognized Clavel who had a suspended license. They arrested him for operating with a suspended license and then became suspicious that he might have narcotics on his person. K9 Ambrie, a female black Labrador trained in narcotic detection, was used to sniff Clavel and gave a very strong alert to his waistband area. Clavell later admitted to having “crack cocaine” hidden in his pants. Numerous clear plastic knotted bags of “crack cocaine” packaged for sale were seized by Troopers.
Members of the Connecticut State Police are committed to combating drug activity in the “Quiet Corner” and anyone with information regarding the illegal sale of narcotics are encouraged to call the Troop D QLTF anonymous Tips Hotline at 860-779-4950 or message the QLTF Facebook page.
