Butler police arrested an alleged drug dealer and recovered more than 100 bags of suspected heroin, additional bags of crack cocaine and marijuana and nearly $1,500 in currency, according to authorities.

Breavett A. Champion, 30, of Pittsburgh was nabbed early Saturday morning on the front porch of a home in the 200 block of American Avenue.

Officers said that during the arrest, Champion’s cell phone rang repeatedly. Police seized the phone and they said they plan to search through it for any evidence of drug trafficking.

District Judge Sue Haggerty arraigned Champion on felony charges of possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance and criminal use of a communication facility.

He also was arraigned on misdemeanor charges of possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia, possession of a small amount of marijuana and loitering and prowling at night.

He is in the Butler County Prison on $100,000 bail.

Butler Patrolman Douglas Mazzanti was patrolling the area of American and South Sixth avenues about 12:40 a.m. when he noticed a man “frantically jiggling” the front door of a darkened porch at 201 American Ave., according to court document.

Police stopped and questioned the man, later identified as Champion, who denied living at the house. He later admitted staying at the house recently.

Authorities said they have received several reports of suspected drug activity at the same house between May 19 and Tuesday. Police said they do not know who lives there and no one answered the door that night.

Mazzanti noted the suspect appeared “extremely nervous and was “visibly shaking” when talking with him.

During a pat down search of Champion, documents said, police found 99 stamp bags of suspected heroin, two bags of suspected crack and a bag of suspected marijuana in his pockets.

Additionally, officers said they found him carrying $1,460 in currency.

Inside his baseball cap, documents said, police found another 10 bags of suspected heroin.

Officers later examined the suspected cocaine and found it weighed a combined 29.8 grams.

A police affidavit, meanwhile, noted Champion has one prior felony drug arrest.

Federal court records indicated his earlier arrest in 2008 followed a more than two-year joint investigation by federal, state and local law enforcement agencies into cocaine distribution in Pittsburgh’s Braddock section.

Champion was one of 50 people indicted in the investigation. He eventually was sentenced in his case to one day in prison and four years of supervised release.
