A 20-year-old Batavia man is accused of selling cocaine to an undercover agent from the Local Drug Enforcement Task Force in 2009.
Dyllon E. Soccio, of 124 Tracy Ave., was taken into custody yesterday.
He is charged with criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree.
Soccio's arrest was part of an investigation into trafficking cocaine in the Batavia area.
Chief Deputy Jerome Brewster said Soccio, who grew up in Batavia, has been a person of interest to the Sheriff's Office for about three years.
On June 23, the Local Drug Enforcement Task Force raided Soccio's home and reportedly seized a quantity of drugs, including what Brewster characterized as a substantial amount of mushrooms.
"He was quite diversified," Brewster said.
Charges stemming from the June 23 arrest include criminal possession of a controlled substance, 4th, criminal possession of marijuana, 2nd, and three counts of criminal possession of a controlled substance, 7th.
He was arraigned in City Court and released under supervision of Genesee County Justice.
