Garber Privately Tells Faculty That Harvard Must Rethink Messaging After GOP Victory
Boston and Cambridge police last week confiscated more than $20,000 worth of heroin and about $24,000 in cash when they arrested a Massachusetts man and woman for possession of heroin.
Horse
Police arrested Richard Harding, age 28, of Franklin, and Magdaline James, age 43, of Cambridge, near the Holiday Inn at Wendell St. and Mass Ave. They were carrying the cash and about 600 bags of heroin, police said.
The officers moved in about 1 p.m. Friday as the pair was leaving the motel.
Easy Come, Easy Go
Harding and James, charged with possession of heroin with intent to distribute, were arraigned Saturday. Both are free on bail.
The arrests came as a result of an ongoing investigation of drug sales in Boston and Cambridge, and police expect to make more arrests shortly, Sgt. Fidele Centrella of the Cambridge Police Department said yesterday.
Base Operation
"It's a base operation. Base operations move around, but the sales go on." Centrella added.
He added that he cannot remember any recent large heroin arrests in Cambridge, although police confiscated a large amount of cocaine at Cambridge's Hyatt Regency Hotel on January 16.
