East Lampeter Township Drug Dealer Arrested with Over 250K in Drugs, 100K in Cash

CORRECTION: The initial release incorrectly stated the K9 Officer was from East Hempfield Police Department.

The Lancaster County Drug Task Force, with the assistance of a Lititz Borough Police Department K9 Officer and East Lampeter Township Police Department, arrested a man in possession of powder and crack cocaine, marijuana, one rifle, two handguns, and over $100,000 in U.S. currency.

Rashad Mateen, 34 of the 200 block of Greenland Drive, was arrested after the Drug Task Force executed a search warrant on April 13 following an investigation that began in Feb.

Mateen is initially charged with three counts of possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Police seized 155 grams of powder cocaine, 56.5 grams of crack cocaine, 71 pounds of marijuana, an AR-15 rifle, two handguns, $104,690.00 in U.S. currency, and various drug paraphernalia items. The cumulative street value of the seized drugs totals approximately $269,150.00.

The task force made several controlled purchases of crack cocaine from Mateen using a confidential informant or undercover officer through Feb., March, and April.

Mateen is being held on $1 million bond after arraignment by Magisterial District Judge Mary Sponaugle.

Mateen is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
