WARREN – Police seized a large number of prescription drugs and cash Friday
afternoon from a house on the Northeast Side. Members of the Trumbull,
Ashtabula, Geauga Law Enforcement Task Force charged Vincent Maggio, 45,
with drug trafficking and possession of a weapon by a convicted felon, after
a raid on his residence at 908 Hollywood St. He is being held in the
Trumbull County Jail.
Jeff Orr, task force commander, said between 10,000 and 15,000 prescription
pills, $10,000 cash, five firearms, a pound of marijuana and scales were
found in his fenced-in residence. The drugs ranged from Oxycontin to
Methadone to Vicodin, Orr said.
A number of prescription bottles that had other names on them beside
Maggio’s were also seized and will be made a part of the ongoing
investigation. Most of what was confiscated after the three-week
investigation was found in the living room area, Orr said, noting the house
had a surveillance camera on it.
The investigation, prompted by neighbors complaining about vehicle traffic
at the house, included drug buys from Maggio, Orr explained.
