According to police, a Pennsylvania Parole Board agent visited a residence on the 5400 block of Mitchell Road last Tuesday to conduct a drug screening urinalysis on 41-year-old Jimmy Lee Wilson Jr., according to court papers.
Bristol Township police were called after the agent reported finding pre-packaged crack cocaine in numerous plastic vials in Wilson’s bedroom.
The officer also observed a large amount of new, unused plastic vials in the kitchen and a “bulk amount” of marijuana, police said.

A search warrant was obtained and served at the residence.
During the search, Bristol Township officers recovered additional vials of crack cocaine and a bulk amount of marijuana from the man’s bedroom. The vials were identical to those found in the kitchen, police said.

Officers also found glassware with a white powder residue in the kitchen, and a quantity of white powder substance hidden inside a red plastic cup in a kitchen cabinet, police said.
A digital scale and metal spoon, both with white powder residue, were found on a couch, police said.
District Judge Kevin Wagner arraigned Wilson last Tuesday for manufacture, delivery, or possession with intent to distribute; possession of a controlled substance; and use/possession of drug paraphernalia.

Wagner set bail at 10 percent of $250,000 but the amount was later reduced by the Bucks County Court of Common pleas judge.
