A Stratford man accused of dealing large amounts of crack and cocaine is being held on $1 million bond after a raid this morning.

Several months ago, police started investigating David Vereen, 33, in connection with crack and cocaine sales in Stratford and surrounding communities.

Police executed a search warrant at Vereen’s 175 Cannon Drive home on Tuesday and found around 300 grams of cocaine, 20 grams of crack, 30 roxycodone pills and several items used for cutting, packaging and processing narcotics.

He was taken into custody and charged with three counts of sales of narcotics, possession with intent to sell more than half-an-ounce of cocaine, operating a drug factory, risk of injury to a minor and other charges.

Bond was set at $1 million. He is due in court on Aug. 15.
