Harry Amareld, 32, told investigators from the Bensalem Police Department that he was selling heroin and meth out of his apartment at Bristol Township’s Marion Village complex, according to court papers. Authorities wrote in court papers that the 32 year old said he uses the $500 to $700 he makes selling drugs to pay for food, gas and rent.

Bensalem police, including a narcotic detective who is authorized to investigate drugs anywhere in Bucks County, executed a search warrant on Amareld’s apartment in April and found 111 bags of heroin, 3.5 grams of meth and various drug paraphernalia along with cash, court papers say.
Amareld allegedly told police he had been selling drugs for a month and had about 10 customers.
A woman was taken from the apartment, according to court papers. County records show that police have not filed any charges against her as of press time.
