Two men arrested for drug trafficking in Stow

Two men were arrested Friday in a drug raid in Stow that allegedly resulted in the seizure of nearly a pound of cocaine and more than 30 grams of fentanyl, officials said.

Francis Feliz Mejia, 29, of Roxbury, is charged with trafficking in a Class A substance, trafficking in a Class B substance (over 200 grams) and conspiracy to violate drug laws, Hudson police said in a statement.

Charles R. Claussen, 33, of Stow, was charged with trafficking in a Class B substance (over 200 grams), conspiracy to violate drug laws and possession of a Class E substance.

Bail was set at $1 million for Feliz Mejia and $500,000 for Claussen, police said. The two men will be arraigned in Marlborough District Court on Monday. It was unclear on Sunday whether either man had hired a lawyer.

Claussen and Feliz Mejia were arrested Friday after a nearly year-long investigation when police served a search warrant for a home in Stow. Police searched the home and a vehicle and allegedly seized $7,880 in cash, 393.8 grams of cocaine, 31.4 grams of fentanyl and other drug paraphernalia, the statement said.

No further information was available on Sunday evening.
