Police: Darien Man, 28, Sold Heroin from Leeds Lane Home
|
Peter Samaha, 28, of 12 Leeds Lane in Darien was arrested Oct. 1 for selling drugs from his home for months, Darien police say. Police gave this account (containing accusations not proven in court):
Information developed by the department’s Selective Enforcement Unit led police to believe Samaha had been selling heroin out of the home, on a road just off of the northern part of Hoyt Street, since last November. Police had received anonymous complaints and police confirmed suspicious activity was going on, so they applied for a search warrant and were granted permission by prosecutors and a judge to search the home. Police conducted the search at the end of August.
