Opinion
BISHOP, J.
The defendant, Troy Thomas, appeals from the judgment of the trial court convicting him of possession of narcotics with the intent to sell by a person who is not drug-dependent in violation of General Statutes § 21a-278 (b). On appeal, the defendant claims that the police violated his constitutional protection against unreasonable search and seizure and that the police lacked probable cause to arrest him without a warrant. We conclude that the officers’ actions were constitutionally permissible and affirm the judgment of the trial court.
