Justin MacLean, 27, and Jason Nolan, 32, have been charged with aggravated trafficking of cocaine.

Justin MacLean, 27, and Jason Nolan, 32, have been charged with aggravated trafficking of cocaine. Both men were arrested Monday and taken to the York County Jail in Alfred, where they remained Wednesday evening.

The Maine Drug Enforcement Agency (MDEA) and the Sanford Police Department worked together on the case, according to Steve McCausland, a spokesman for the state's public safety department.

MDEA Supervisor Stephen Borst said undercover agents reportedly had purchased cocaine from Nolan in recent days at his house on Brook Street in Sanford, McCausland said in a prepared statement.

On Monday, agents and local police officers stopped a vehicle operated by MacLean as it left Nolan's residence and allegedly found nearly five ounces of cocaine and crack in the vehicle. Agents then took Nolan into custody at his home.

McCausland said the agents and officers seized a small amount of cocaine, a scale and some packing materials.

MacLean lives in Haverhill, Mass., and is believed to be transporting the drug to Sanford, McCausland added.

Both men are likely to appear in York County Superior Court on Dec. 14.

Borst said Nolan is suspected of selling cocaine in Sanford over the past year.

Both men are being held on $50,000 cash bail.
