A post on Craigslist advertising "smokeable anxiety and depression relief" led to the arrest of a Middletown man, police said.
Daniel Guerino Demelis, 21, is accused of sale of a controlled substance after police said Demelis sold drugs to undercover officers four different times in January.
Middletown Police and Connecticut State Police started the investigation when they came across the ad.
The post read:
“INSTANT ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION RELIEF**-$420 (MIDDLETOWN)

Police were able to determine that "DJ" was Demelis.
Demelis had court schedule on Jan. 29 and was held on a $50,000 bond.
