A Danbury man has been arrested on drug trafficking charges.  Police launched an investigation weeks ago into resident complaints about 35-year old Jason Edward Jones selling drugs throughout the City. 

On Friday afternoon, police carried out search warrants after following him to a Lake Avenue business parking lot.  He was arrested in the middle of a drug transaction, and the other man was also arrested because he had heroin in his possession.  The other man, 33-year old Joshua Boyle of Danbury, was charged with possession and released on a promise to appear in court. 

A search of Jones' Park Place home and car turned up a considerable quantity of crack cocaine and prescription narcotics. 

Jones was charged with four various counts of possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, attempted sale of a controlled substance and carrying a dangerous weapon.  Jones was held on bond pending release or arraignment.
