Thursday, September 02, 2010

Two people were arrested last night after Pittsburgh police said they discovered $9,000 worth of heroin in their Lawrenceville home.

Police said Freddrick Gravely, 31, and Malika Roebuck, 35, will be charged with possession of a controlled substance, possession with intent to deliver and criminal conspiracy.

Plainclothes detectives from the Zone 2 police station executed a search warrant at the pair's home in the 100 block of Almond Way around 5 p.m. Wednesday. There, they found 900 stamp bags of heroin with an estimated street value of $9,000, three cell phones and $526 in cash. They also found evidence that tied the two to the residence.

Both were being held at the Allegheny County Jail Wednesday night awaiting arraignment.
