Buffalo Man Arrested for Trafficking Cocaine

BUFFALO, N.Y. – A 21-year-old Buffalo man was arrested and charged with conspiracy and attempt to possess with intent to distribute 500 grams or more of cocaine.

Alexis Javier Centeno-Baez, 21, of Buffalo, NY, was charged by criminal complaint with conspiracy and attempt to possess with intent to distribute 500 grams or more of cocaine. Each count carries a minimum penalty of five years in prison, a maximum of 40 years, and a $5,000,000 fine.

According to the complaint, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service intercepted a package shipped from Puerto Rico to an address in Buffalo. A search warrant was executed and revealed two individually wrapped kilograms of cocaine stuffed inside a LEGO box.

During a controlled delivery, Centeno-Baez went to the address and retrieved the package. When Drug Enforcement Administration Agents approached to arrest him, the defendant left the package in his car and fled on foot. Agents pursued Centeno-Baez and apprehended him about three blocks away.

The defendant made an initial appearance today before U.S. Magistrate Judge H. Kenneth Schroeder, Jr. and is being held pending a detention hearing on September 2, 2015 at 10:00 a.m.
