Police: 2 Men Had Heroin, Swiped Credit Card

Port Chester men charged with misdemeanor, felony.

Port Chester police arrested two men last Sunday who were allegedly in possession of heroin and a stolen credit card, according to authorities.

Police received a tip on Dec. 30 from a resident saying that his brother and his brother's friend were driving under the influence of drugs. The tipster also noted his aunt was missing her American Express card, and that the brother may be in possession of it.

Officers soon after stopped a vehicle matching the tipster's description -- behind the wheel were the brother, 31-year-old Daniel Tremble, and his friend, 30-year-old Kajeten Kulpinski, police said.

During a search, police uncovered a hypodermic needle, and a Newport cigarette box containing three packets of heroin, according to Port Chester police lieutenant James Laderious.

Both men were charged with criminal possession of a controlled substance in the seventh degree, a misdemeanor. The brother -- who was found to have the missing credit card, police said -- was also charged with criminal possession of stolen property in the fourth degree, a felony.

Hi, Thank you both for the feedback. Aiden, were you trying to post as a board message? There mightRead More have been some kind of technical glitch that our IT team is working out. In regards to your other comments, I urge you to give it a little time to get used to. The little bell at the top right of the page has a red circle with a number in it to tell you that someone has commented or interacted with something you have done so you should be able to go there and see exactly what is going on in the places where you posted. I hope this helps!

I agree with Aidan. I would check the Patch once a day for the articles, but several times to seeRead More how a discussion progressed. With the new format, that method is virtually impossible.

Btw, I tried for twenty minutes to post this as a new thread ... I finally gave up because pageRead More after page did zero ... just spun me nowhere. A waste.

Linda T., I would guess Mrs. Brakewood lives in Port Chester if she is running for the Port ChesterRead More Board of Ed. Even if the schools had to impose an austerity budget, your taxes would still go up. The state has more control in these matters than you think.

Linda, the per pupil expenditure in PC schools is the lowest in Westchester and Rockland countiesRead More ... by about $2,000 per student. The issue is two fold. First, our property values are not as strong as our neighbors, so our homes have a higher levy in order to fund the schools. Second, and more important, is that the reliance on property taxes slams moderate income communities like PC. We need for the state to move to an income tax to fund schools. Scream at your legislators ... not the BoE.

I am concerned there is not enough attention to detail in the BOE budget overall and Mrs. BrakewoodRead More comment about keeping taxes affordable ... where does she live ? they are out of control and in my opinion the money we pay for taxes we should have the best looking schools anywhere ... just my opinion
