‘Uncomfortable’ Middletown man arrested on drug charges confesses to hiding crack cocaine inside his body, police say

New drug charges did not sit well with a suspected Middletown crack cocaine dealer while he was being processed at police headquarters late last week.

Marcus McKoy, 48, was clearly uncomfortable and shifting on his stool while he and Angel Colon, 32, were being booked on a series of narcotics possession and sales charges late the night of May 7, a Middletown police arraignment report detailed.

Detectives suspected they knew what was behind the discomfort, but McKoy came clean before they began a strip search. He been sitting, literally, on far more drugs than officers had found in his car just a few minutes before.
