Indiana County man faces additional drug charges
Additional charges were filed this week against an Indiana County man already facing drug charges.
An arrest warrant was issued Thursday for Sterling Friel, 25, of Indiana. Friel was released on $10,000 bond on drug charges that were held for court on Sept. 14.
Friel was the target of a two-month investigation by the Indiana County Drug Task Force, according to District Attorney Robert Manzi. During the investigation, Friel sold narcotics to a confidential informant, Manzi said.
The county probation department obtained a search warrant for Friel’s residence in July. Law enforcement found approximately 63 grams of cocaine, drug paraphernalia and cash at the residence, Manzi said.
