A four-month-long cocaine distribution investigation involving multiple law enforcement agencies has led to charges.
Don Wilson, 20, whose last known address was in Bensalem, was arrested and charged with 13 drug related felonies Monday evening. He was remanded to the Bucks County Correctional Facility on 10 percent of $95,000 bail.

According to court documents, federal Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agents as well as Bucks County law enforcement officers began working on the case using a confidential informant and undercover officer, who helped conduct four controlled purchases of cocaine from Wilson between October 21 and December 15. The buys reportedly took place at several locations in the Levittown area.
Through the four controlled cocaine purchases, police uncovered nearly 5 ounces of cocaine from Wilson, according to court documents.
On Monday, officers arranged to purchase an additional ounce of cocaine from Wilson for $1,450. When Wilson arrived to the Fairless Hills location, he was taken into custody by the Falls Township Police Department, authorities said.

A probable cause affidavit notes that Wilson, in addition to waiving his Miranda warnings, admitted to the aforementioned cocaine deals, before announcing he had no intention of returning with cocaine after he received the $1,450 for Monday’s deal.
Wilson is scheduled to have his scheduled preliminary hearing on January 12.
