Patrick O’Brien, 41, was arrested on Friday after a search warrant was executed at a home on Carson Avenue in Sandy Township, revealing six bricks of heroin and more than 300 stamp packs.
According to the district attorney, the successful months-long investigation was made possible by anonymous information submitted through the Clearfield County Crime Stoppers tip line.
