Arlington Police Arrest Alleged Heroin Dealer for Selling Drugs Near a School

MICHAEL J. BOWLER, AGE 48, OF ARLINGTON was arrested and faces a number of drug charges.
MICHAEL J. BOWLER, AGE 48, OF ARLINGTON was arrested and faces a number of drug charges.

ARLINGTON – Chief Frederick Ryan reports that the Arlington Police Department, working with a municipal police drug task force, arrested an alleged heroin dealer yesterday afternoon.

MICHAEL J. BOWLER, AGE 48, OF ARLINGTON has been charged with:

  • Distribution of a Class A Drug (Heroin)
  • Drug Violation Near a School
  • Possession of a Class A Drug (Heroin)

BOWLER was arrested after an investigation by the Suburban Middlesex County Drug Task Force, which includes Arlington Police Detectives and police officers from several other cities and towns. Detectives conducted an undercover drug buy from the suspect, and officers moved in to arrest him as soon as the transaction was completed.

The location of the transaction, Burton Street in Arlington, is located within the Ottoson Junior High School Drug Free School Zone.

After his arrest, police executed a search warrant of his home on Burton Street. Detectives and the Arlington Police K-9, Dasty, searched the premises and located a quantity of heroin, cash, plastic bags, and a digital scale.

Detectives and offices from the Arlington, Newton, Waltham, Lexington, Belmont, Watertown, and Lincoln Police Departments worked the case for the regional task force.

“Heroin addiction is the most significant public health crisis we have faced in a generation,” Chief Ryan said. “I am proud of the inter-agency cooperation and relationships we have forged to help attack this problem head-on. Heroin does not stop at town borders.”

BOWLER was ordered held on $25,040 cash bail and will likely be arraigned Thursday in Cambridge District Court.

These are allegations. All suspects are considered innocent until proven guilty.
