Fairfield CT Feb 24 2011 A Stratford man was arrested Friday on drug charges after security officers at Super Stop & Shop on Kings Highway Cutoff in Fairfield reported two suspicious people in the store.
Security notified police about the suspicious men at 12:30 p.m. One of the men left in a red Jeep, while the other, Eric Falcon, 31, of Hillside Avenue in Stratford, fled on foot and was apprehended across the street, police said.
Falcon’s car was in the supermarket’s parking lot, and, inside the car, officers found a knife with an 8 ¼” blade and a glass pipe, commonly used for smoking crack cocaine, with burnt residue.
Falcon was charged with having weapons in a motor vehicle and possession of drug paraphernalia. He also was charged with having an unregistered motor vehicle and failure to return plates, police said.
Bond was initially set at $2,500 and was then dropped by the state bail commissioner on Falcon’s promise to appear in Bridgeport Superior Court on March 1, police said.
