Drug agents seized $100,000 worth of cocaine before charging a Lewiston man with drug trafficking.
The Maine Drug Enforcement Agency says authorities conducted a compliance check Tuesday on 36-year-old Steven Braggs, who was on supervised release after being sentenced for a firearm charge.
Braggs was arrested at a hotel in Lewiston, where he was found to be in possession of 100 grams of cocaine.
Agents later searched his home and found more cocaine, trafficking materials and more than $25,000 in suspected drug proceeds.
Braggs was charged with drug trafficking and taken to Androscoggin County Jail where he’s being held without bail.
