Bethlehem Police were responding to an unspecified incident on the 500 block of Carlton Avenue when they saw a “significant amount of narcotics in plain view,” a Wednesday press release said.

They then carried out a search warrant, which turned up distributable amounts of fentanyl and methamphetamine, a hydraulic press, packaging materials, a 9 mm semi-automatic firearm, cash, and marijuana, the release said.

Dominic Rhone, 34, was arrested and taken into custody.

Rhone was a former Northampton County Sheriff's Department Fugitive of the Week after missing a drunken driving-related bail hearing in 2013, LehighValleyLive reported at the time.

Rhone was charged with numerous drug distribution and other offenses.
