SWAT Team Raids West Street Drug Den

Two Concord residents are being arraigned on Oct. 25, after early morning arrests on West Street.

Leslee Drew-Kennett, 43, and Randy Santos, 39, were both arrested by Concord Police, the Attorney General’s Drug Task Force, and the Central New Hampshire Special Operations Unit (NHSOU).

Drew-Kennett was charged with five felony counts of sale of a controlled drug; Santos was charged with two felony counts of possession of a controlled drug and two felony counts of possession of a controlled drug with intent to distribute.

According to Lt. Timothy O’Malley, the commander of the criminal investigations unit for the department, the couple were allegedly selling “crack cocaine, heroin, marijuana and prescription drugs” out of the home.

“The search warrant is the result of a month-long investigation prompted by numerous neighborhood complaints about illegal drug activity at this address,” he noted.

Both Drew-Kennett and Santos were transported to the Merrimack County House of Corrections and will be arraigned remotely this afternoon.
