Nicholas Cummings, 28, of 26 Lincoln Ave., Nashua

MERRIMACK – A man and woman from Nashua are free on personal recognizance bail awaiting a court date following their arrests in Merrimack last week on various drug-related offenses.

Police said officers arrested Nicholas Cummings, 28, of 26 Lincoln Ave., and Stacey Slaoui, 44, of 65 Amherst St., Apt. C, after executing a search warrant for a room at The Residences at Daniel Webster.

Cummings and Slaoui were in the room at the time officers executed the warrant, police said. The search turned up a clear plastic baggie containing a controlled drug, along with “related paraphernalia consistent with that of distribution,” police said.

They charged Cummings with two counts of possession of a controlled drug, and one count each of possession of a controlled drug with intent to distribute, and possession of a hypodermic needle.

Slaoui was charged with two counts of possession of a controlled drug, and one count each of possession of a controlled drug with intent to distribute and falsifying evidence, according to police.
