According to Detective Sergeant Moses Pereira, on Wednesday, as part of an ongoing narcotics investigation, members of the Vice, Intelligence, and Gang Unit were conducting surveillance on an individual suspected of illegal narcotics sales in the City of Fall River.

A subsequent search of the vehicle led to the discovery of approximately 500 grams of a white powdery substance suspected to be fentanyl, an additional 1.3 grams of suspected fentanyl, and $440 in cash.

Miliano was charged with trafficking over 200 grams of a Class A Drug and operating a motor vehicle after suspension.
