BENSALEM, Pa. - Police have arrested two alleged drug dealers and seized more than 5,000 bags of suspected heroin following a raid in Bucks County.
Winston Frias-Moya, 31, and Adalberto Villalona, 43, both of Philadelphia, were charged Wednesday with possession with intent to deliver heroin, criminal conspiracy and related offenses.
The arrests were a result of a joint investigation by the Bucks County Detectives Drug Strike Force with state, local and federal authorities.
In February, investigators conducted two controlled purchases of suspected heroin and fentanyl from Frias-Moya and Villalona on Street Road in Bensalem Township.
