(WGAN) Bangor police say they arrested a man and seized a large supply of heroin, crack cocaine and other drugs.

John Clement, 22, of Bangor is charged with drug trafficking following a Maine Drug Enforcement Agency investigation into drug deals at an apartment on Ohio Street.

He was a passenger in a vehicle that police stopped as it left the apartment. Police say a search of Clement’s home turned up a $30,000 drug supply that included cocaine, oxycodone pills and suspected heroin.

Officers also say they confiscated two loaded handguns and $10,000 in suspected drug proceeds

Clement was out on bail after being charged with aggravated drug trafficking last year. His bail conditions allowed officers to search him or his home at any time.
