WARWICK, RI — Warwick Police arrested a Warwick man Nov. 30, charging him with possession of cocaine with intent to deliver after a cocaine bust  and search at a Warwick home.

According to Warwick Police, the department’s Special Operations Group, with the assistance of the RI Department of Corrections Special Investigation Unit, executed a search warrant at 29 Dan St. in Warwick Thursday, Nov. 30.
