Michael Maloy, 30, of Batavia, was pulled over by Sheriff's deputies on a routine traffic stop Wednesday when a K-9 dog alerted on the vehicle, according to a Sheriff's Office report.

Further investigation revealed Maloy allegedly had heroin and hypodermic needles in his car.

He was charged with criminal possession of a controlled substance. Bail is set at $1,200.

I didnt recognize him without his glasses and hat on but i wondered where my downstairs neighbor has been the last few weeks. I used to see him coming and going all the time with little toddler in the back seat. Very sad !
