A man accused of dealing heroin and crack in the Easton area was arrested after traveling to Philly in an Uber to pick up drugs, city police said.
Jason Kuehner, of Lower Mount Bethel Township, was arrested Thursday afternoon after his trip, and charged with felony counts of possession of heroin and crack cocaine with the intent to distribute, police said.
The 38-year-old Kuehner was sent to Northampton County Prison in lieu of 10% of $50,000 bail, where he remained as of Friday afternoon.
Easton police said they learned Kuehner was dealing drugs in the Easton area, and had a confidential source make a controlled purchase of heroin earlier this month from Kuehner.
