Robert Denton Fugate II

ADAMS TWP — Police have issued a warrant for a 33-year-old man accused of selling drugs that they said later killed an Adams Township man.

Robert Denton Fugate II of Evans City has been charged with drug delivery resulting in death — a third-degree murder — and possession with intent to deliver in connection with the April 26 overdose death of Michael Kramer, 24.

Fugate drives a blue 2016 Honda Civic, and is described as 5 feet 6 inches tall with brown eyes and sandy hair.

Police investigated Kramer’s room after he was unable to be revived by CPR and Narcan and found seven stamp bags bound with a rubber band featuring a picture of a submarine and the words “Hunter Killer,” according to Officer Jessica Simons’ affidavit.

The affidavit states that police found text messages between Fugate and Kramer that discussed Fugate’s sale of heroin to Kramer.

“Additionally, Fugate later sent text messages to M. Kramer advising (him) to be careful, warning him of the high potency of the heroin and the quantity he should do,” the affidavit reads.

Police said Kramer died of a combined heroin and fentanyl overdose.

Court documents do not indicate that Fugate has been arrested, and Adams Township police could not be reached for comment.

Fugate does not have a lengthy criminal past. In June, he pleaded guilty to a summary criminal mischief offense in Allegheny County, and in Butler County two misdemeanor charges are pending.

He has been out on $2,500 unsecured bail since May 23.

Drug delivery resulting in death carries a maximum of 40 years in prison if convicted. Possession with intent to deliver heroin has a 15-year maximum sentence.
