A narcotics investigation in Dunkirk ended with the arrest of a city man last week. The Chautauqua County Sheriff's Office says its narcotics investigators saw 49-year-old Germaine Dias walking in the area of 515 Main Street shortly after 2:00 PM Wednesday. Dias was detained at that location due to a search warrant. As a result of the search, investigators seized 28.18 grams of crack cocaine, 5.15 grams of fentanyl, 3.95 grams of cocaine, 74 dosage units of suboxone, scales and packaging material, and $1,653 in cash. Dias was charged with two counts of 3rd-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, one count of 7th-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, and one count of 2nd-degree criminally using drug paraphernalia. Dias was transported to the Dunkirk Police Department and arraigned in Dunkirk City Court. He is being held in the Chautauqua County Jail on $100,000 bail. Dunkirk Police officers and Jamestown Police detectives assisted in the probe.
