GREENFIELD — Tips from community members led police to arrest a man they believe was selling drugs out of his Greenfield home, investigators said.
Mario Everette, 27, was arrested Wednesday and will face 11 drug-related charges, including dealing a controlled substance and maintaining a common nuisance, detectives said.
Officers used confidential informants to buy prescription painkillers from Everette on several occasions at his home in the 800 block of West Tague Street and at local businesses around Greenfield, investigators said.
