The cocaine has an estimated street value of $900. Two Pit Bull dogs were also removed from the residence.“The community’s tolerance for drug dealing that often leads to violence is at an all time low, their continued cooperation is a testament to our growing partnership,” said Police Commissioner David Chong. “The fact that there were three children in the home makes this case even more disturbing.”Artimus Perkins has an extensive arrest record that includes prior convictions for narcotics related offenses.
