Alonzo Williams, 51, of Springfield, was arrested and arraigned late last month on charges of possession of a firearm without a license, trafficking in fentanyl over 200 grams, trafficking in cocaine over 200 grams, trafficking in cocaine 18-36 grams, possession to distribute a Class A drug, according to Hampden District Attorney Anthony Gulluni.
Detectives conducted a traffic stop of Williams on Dec. 22, 2022, and found him to be in possession of 136 grams of cocaine, Gulluni said.
A subsequent search of his residence at 81 Bessemer Street in Springfield reportedly yielded 3,900 fentanyl pills, about 30 pounds of cocaine, 406 grams of raw fentanyl, a firearm, and about $190,000 in counterfeit cash.
Gulluni noted that the total street level value of this seizure exceeds $2 million and that the work of detectives likely saved many lives.
In a statement, Gulluni said, “This very significant narcotics supplier to both the Knox Street and Sycamore Street gangs is a continuation of our efforts in arresting, disrupting, and dismantling these highly dangerous and lethal drug trafficking organizations, who drive fear and violence in our community
