An investigation into suspected drug activity at a residence in Auburn led to the seizure of a significant amount of illegal drugs and the arrest of a man with previous convictions, Auburn Police announced Wednesday.

Auburn Police say that their Proactive Community Enforcement (PACE) Unit, assisted by the patrol division, executed a search warrant at 134 South Main St. in Auburn on Tuesday, after investigating reports of ongoing suspected drug activity occurring at the residence.

During a search of the residence police found approximately 14 grams of cocaine base (crack cocaine), two grams of cocaine, 133 fentanyl pills pressed to be disguised as prescription oxycodone pills, as well as $1,300 cash in suspected drug proceeds and other drug paraphernalia.

Arrested was 37-year-old Charles “Devin” Bradrick of Auburn, who is facing two counts of aggravated trafficking of scheduled drugs (Class A), unlawful possession of scheduled drugs (Class B), and two counts of unlawful possession of schedule drugs (Class C).

Bradrick was transported to the Androscoggin County Jail where his bail was set at $20,000 cash.

Police said the charges against Bradrick were elevated due to previous convictions, and that the investigation is ongoing and more charges are expected.

I would say by the tilt of his head , and the look on his face , that he doesn’t give a shit .
That being the case , lock the SOB in a cell for a long – long – long time .
We’ll all be fine without having him around .
Waste of time trying to rehabilitate this piece .
