Drug charges

A township man faces multiple drug-related charges after police stopped him on Southern Boulevard at Meadowbrook Avenue on Monday.

Richard Cummings, 42, of Firnley Avenue is charged with felony drug possession and misdemeanor counts of possession of drug-abuse instruments and paraphernalia. He also had warrants out of Youngstown Municipal Court for failure to appear on drug and traffic charges.
