Drug Bust in Parkside
Portland police officers and agents from the Maine Drug Enforcement Administration arrested three New York City men on drug charges at 1:00 A.M on October 20, after police were called to 129 Grant Street for a report of a fight. Officers found three men and a woman inside the apartment, along with evidence of drug use.

Agents from MDEA responded and conducted a search of the apartment, where they seized 100 grams of crack cocaine, 3 grams of raw heroin, one handgun, scales and packaging material, and $5000 in cash. The drugs have a street value of about $20,000.00

Chris Brown, 27, Aiyub Saboor, 28, and Derick Walls, 28, are all charged with Aggravated Trafficking in Cocaine and Aggravated Forgery. All three men gave false names when arrested. A fingerprint check led to the true identities of the men. All three are being held at the Cumberland County Jail, where bail is set at $100,000.
