Superior man faces heroin charges

A Superior man arrested last week for repeatedly delivering heroin appears in Douglas County Circuit Court today.

Carvell Nashun Robinson, 30, was arrested for the sale/delivery of heroin as a result of an investigation conducted by the narcotics investigators from the Superior Police Department and Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. He made an initial appearance in court last week. Robinson faces six counts of delivery of heroin, and one count delivery of heroin as a party to a crime. He also faces one count felon in possession of a firearm and one count misdemeanor possession of marijuana.

According to the criminal complaint:

More than three grams of heroin was seized during the investigation.

In addition, Robinson was convicted of a felony drug offense in 2010 in St. Louis County District Court.

A search warrant executed at Robinson’s Superior residence during the investigation revealed he was in possession of two firearms.

Cash bail of $7,500 was ordered in the case. A preliminary hearing is slated for today.

The case is just one example of narcotics related arrests within the past few months that have been initiated by the narcotics investigators from the Superior Police Department and Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, said Superior Deputy Chief Nick Alexander.
