Corcoran police make trio of drug-related arrests in single day

The possession and use of controlled substances led to the arrest of numerous Corcoran residents on March 21, as local police officers conducted three drug-related busts within hours of one another. It began at 8:49 a.m., when Fernando Molina, 41, was pulled over during a routine traffic stop in the 2100 block of Sherman Avenue. When officers approached his vehicle, they discovered the man trying to hide 0.1 grams of heroin inside his mouth while still attempting to speak.
