Traffic Stop Near Middletown Results in Major Heroin, Cocaine Seizure


Middletown - A traffic stop on Route 1 yesterday afternoon resulted in the seizure of hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of heroin and cocaine.

The stop occurred at 3:47 p.m. south of the Biddles Toll Plaza when a trooper observed a southbound 2014 Dodge Charger speeding. The trooper initiated a traffic stop.

While the trooper spoke to the driver, Michael Chandler, 35, of Philadelphia, a state police drug detection canine sniffed the exterior of the vehicle and indicated there were drugs within.

Troopers searched the vehicle and located plastic bag in the trunk. Inside of the bag was 271 grams of heroin and 83.2 grams of cocaine. The heroin was pure, a form that would normally be diluted before sale to a user. The 271 grams of pure heroin, once diluted and sold, would create over 40,000 bags of heroin valued at more than $400,000.

Chandler was transported to Troop 9 and charged with two counts of possession of a controlled substance in a tier 5 quantity, two counts of possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance, and one count of possession of drug paraphernalia. He was committed to Howard R. Young Correctional Institute on $1,333,300 cash bail.

  5. Does it surprise anyone that the cops don't find cash sometimes?
    Mmmm , good ole trick by the cops , money in their pockets , drugs in for evidence.
    Sometimes the cops will also take the drugs , at least most of them and let the guy off with a small offence. Crap , everyone needs a bonus sometimes.

  9. This much bond for drugs, yet rape a young girl in a local school and get a tiny bond compared to moving drugs. What is more important preventing drugs to people that get themselves hooked or protect young girls from a violent criminal that will hurt the rest of their lives. The system does not work and is not protecting the public and our children.
