Preliminary hearings are set for Indiana County’s District Courts today, including one for a man who faces several drug-related charges.
Two preliminary hearings will be held for 35-year-old Kenneth Polites, Jr. of Elmora, who faces a felony charge of Possession with intent to deliver and misdemeanor use or possession of drug paraphernalia for an incident on October 25th, and four more felony charges of possession with intent to deliver, and single misdemeanor counts of possession of a controlled substance, simple possession, illegal operation of a vehicle with ignition interlock installed, and summary traffic charges for an incident on November 9th. In that November incident, Polites was pulled over by Homer City police and taken into custody after police found 41 stamp bags of suspected fentanyl, 24 grams of suspected fentanyl powder, 81 grams of suspected cocaine, 20 grams of suspected crack cocaine, 46 pills and $2,000 in cash.
