Fall River Police have arrested a man on several drug charges after an investigation.
According to police, on Saturday, members of the Fall River Police Department’s Community Action & Suppression Team were on patrol in the Corky Row area when their attention was drawn to a gray Toyota Tundra.
Following a brief investigation, a motor vehicle stop was conducted. Upon stopping the vehicle, the front-seat passenger, Keyante Mills Sr., was reportedly uncooperative and instructed the driver to flee from police.
The subsequent investigation resulted in the seizure of approximately 11.34 grams of suspected fentanyl, 9.83 grams of suspected crack cocaine, and $673 in cash.
Mills was taken into custody and charged with assault and battery on a police officer, resisting arrest, possession of a Class B substance with intent to distribute, and trafficking in more than 10 grams of fentanyl.
He is expected to be arraigned Tuesday in Fall River District Court
All defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in court.
