A Philadelphia man faces felony charges after a police search of his hotel room reportedly revealed a massive stash of heroin, cocaine and marijuana.
Jamere Bolds, 18, faces three counts of felony drug charges after being arrested by State College police on Thursday.
According to court documents, members of the Centre County Drug Task force received information from “multiple individuals” that a man was selling drugs from a room at the Ramada Inn on South Atherton Street. The informants requested anonymity out of fear of retaliation.
Police identified the hotel room in question, which seemed to be the source of “a strong odor.” Officers then obtained a search warrant and returned, at which point Bolds answered the door.
A search of the room reportedly revealed 14.3 grams of crack cocaine in 143 bags, along with 48 bags of heroin and over 23 grams of marijuana. Police say most of the heroin was hidden inside a Pringles can, while some of the cocaine was hidden inside the TV stand. Police did not find any paraphernalia associated with the use of either heroin or cocaine.
Bolds is currently being held in the Centre County Correctional Facility on $75,000 bail while awaiting a Wednesday preliminary hearing.
