Boston Police report arresting a Revere man on drug charges yesterday after they say officers watched him sell some drugs on Blackstone Street, walk over to a Haymarket tent and then sell some more drugs an hour later.
Police say Florentino Figueroa-Barragan, 36, had 43 bags of heroin and 14 bags of cocaine when drug-unit officers arrested him around 12:45 p.m., after watching the second transaction.
According to police:
At about 11:50 AM, the officers were in the area conducting an investigation when they observed the suspect engage in a street level drug transaction behind a dumpster on Blackstone Street near Surface Road. Officers followed the suspect to the Haymarket outdoor market and observed him enter a produce tent where he appeared to be employed. At about 12:45 PM, while the officers continued their surveillance of the suspect, a second individual approached and appeared to take part in another drug transaction with the suspect next to the produce tent.
He faces arraignment on Monday on a charge of distribution of Class A drugs, police say.
Innocent, etc.

Buyer beware
Those Haymarket dealers always keep the good stuff on display and then try to bag the crap weed for you. Always insist on picking out the buds you want.
Who cops weed on the street anymore?
I will also note that the guy was selling coke
But I hear that the coke at Haymarket is mostly baking soda the later in the day you go.
Benjamin's a nice touch in that photo
