HTN: Novel Way to Hide Drugs

A Cheektowaga man caught speeding Tuesday on the inbound Kensington Expressway was found to be transporting drugs in his medical equipment. Jermaine D. Williams wears a wrap-around upper body brace for support because of injuries from gunshot wounds. He's being charged with criminal possession of heroin, which he attempted to hide inside the brace. A bag of heroin was allegedly found on him during a traffic stop by Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority officers. Ten additional bags of heroin in the brace were apparently found by a narcotics dog at the Erie County Holding Center. He was also charged with speeding.
