New Bedford Man Accused Of Running Oxycodone Delivery Service

A New Bedford man was placed under arrest following an investigation into a Oxycodone delivery service.

Detective Captain Steven Vicente says that 11 a.m. Saturday members of the Organized Crime and Intelligence Bureau saw the target of the investigation, identified as 40-year-old Juan Carlos Ostorga, leaving his home and driving off in a black Infinity.

Ostorgo's driver's license is revoked and he was pulled over and immediately placed under arrest.

Officers then carried out a search of his home, located at 30 Lucas St., where Vicente says it's believed the drug business was being conducted.

The search uncovered four grams of cocaine, 317 Oxycodone tablets, and $824 in cash.

The drugs have an estimated street value of roughly $10,000.

Ostorga was scheduled to be arraigned Monday morning New Bedford District Court on charges of Trafficking in class B- Oxycodone; Possession of class B-cocaine; and Operating after revocation of license
