Drug arrest after traffic stop

KILLINGLY — A Dayville man was arrested on drug charges after a May 20 traffic stop.

William Caron, 27, of Danielle Way, was charged with a stop sign violation, possession of narcotics and possession of narcotics with intent to sell.

Members of the Quality of Life Task Force were conducting motor vehicle enforcement in the area of Ballouville Rd. and Chestnut Hill Rd. in Killingly, when a member observed a green Volkswagen Golf fail to stop for the stop sign.

Officers developed probable cause to search the vehicle and K-9 Dodie, a narcotic detector Labrador retriever alerted to the odor of narcotics outside and inside of the vehicle. Task force members found approximately 50 wax paper folds containing heroin.  The heroin was pre-packaged for sale and was hastily hidden under personal effects in the backseat to avoid detection.
