Police arrested two men on drug charges at a Stratford inn Tuesday following a narcotics and prostitution investigation.
Haji Bischoff, 31, of Waterbury, and Nevin Lowe, 25, of Meriden, are accused of possession and intent to deal crack cocaine and heroin, police said.
Stratford and Milford narcotics officers searched the Honeyspot Motor Inn room where Bischoff was staying on warrants stemming from an "investigation into alleged narcotics and prostitution activities at the motor inn," according to police. When they arrived, Lowe was with him, as well as four women, police said.
The women weren't arrested, but police charged Bischoff with three counts of possession of crack cocaine with intent to sell, three counts of possession of heroin with intent to sell and two counts of possession with intent to sell within 1,500 feet of a school. Lowe was also arrested on one count of each of those charges.
"These arrests are part of ongoing investigations into such activity that impacts the quality of life in town," Stratford police said in a news release.
The state "reprimanded" Lowe return to custody after police found him in violation of his probation terms due to the incident, police said.
