On Tuesday, February 3, 2026, detectives assigned to the Boston Police Department Special Investigations Unit and District A-7 Drug Control Unit (East Boston), in collaboration with the United States Postal Inspection Service, executed multiple Suffolk Superior Court–authorized search warrants as part of a lengthy narcotics investigation that originated with the Postal Inspection Service.

The investigation determined that individuals involved in drug trafficking were utilizing the United States Postal Service to ship cocaine from Puerto Rico to Boston. Investigators identified multiple parcels and locations in East Boston consistent with this trafficking method and coordinated surveillance along with a controlled delivery of a parcel believed to contain illegal narcotics.

Following the delivery, officers executed search warrants at multiple East Boston locations, including 11 Trustman Terrace and 906A Saratoga Street. One parcel was recovered unopened and subsequently examined by investigators. Inside, officers located two brick-shaped packages containing a white, rock-like substance. The substance was analyzed using specialized narcotics detection equipment and tested positive for cocaine base, with a combined weight of approximately 2,000 grams.

As a result of the execution of the search warrants, investigators recovered significant quantities of narcotics, firearms, an undisclosed amount of U.S. currency, and drug-related evidence, including:

• A 9mm large-capacity semi-automatic firearm, a large-capacity feeding device, and ammunition
• An additional feeding device
• Approximately three and one-half kilograms of fentanyl, some packaged for retail distribution, with an estimated street value exceeding $1,000,000
• Approximately two and one-half kilograms of cocaine, some packaged for retail distribution, with an estimated street value exceeding $150,000
• Numerous pills believed to be controlled substances
• Drug packaging materials, including heat sealers, scales, and packaging supplies
• Safes and lock boxes containing an undisclosed amount of U.S. currency, with one additional locked safe pending further court authorization
