At around 4:45 PM on Monday, February 26, 2024, officers from District B-2 (Roxbury), in conjunction with officers from the Special Investigations Unit, apprehended Dennis Wilson, 35, of Norwood, on charges related to drug possession.
During an investigation in the vicinity of Warren and Woodbine St, officers identified a suspect vehicle and conducted a traffic stop.

Based on their training and experience, officers suspected the plastic bag contained illegal narcotics. Upon retrieval, the bag was found to contain a white powdery substance believed to be cocaine. Subsequently, the suspect was arrested.
A search of the suspect yielded another plastic bag containing several medium-sized pieces of a rock-like substance, suspected to be crack cocaine. The plastic bag with the white powdery substance weighed 5 grams, while the one containing the rock-like substance weighed 14 grams. Additionally, officers seized $1,284.75 in US currency.
