The Maine State Police arrested a 43-year-old man Wednesday morning at the Van Buren Public Library for Aggravated Drug Trafficking.

Deputies searched a residence on Lafayette Street and seized fentanyl, meth and cocaine base.

Large quantities of drugs and other items were seized after a tip and a search warrant.

Deputies found 22 grams of fentanyl and 25 grams of meth after searching in the car.

Seized from the residence was approximately 23 grams of fentanyl, 6 grams of crack cocaine, over $16,000 in suspected drug proceeds and 46 firearms.

Law enforcement officers executed the search warrant on Penobscot Avenue in Millinocket.

The Maine Drug Enforcement Agency says a Cornish man has been charged with distributing crack cocaine in York County.
