A man is accused of violating the terms of his pre-trial release after an arrest on charges of trafficking cocaine and fentanyl, according to Southwest Florida Crime Stoppers.
Crime Stoppers says Ryan Flores, 32, was initially arrested after he was pulled over for a traffic stop when leaving a bar in Fort Myers. Officers said they smelled marijuana coming from the car, and when Flores was asked to exit, a tube of cocaine fell out of his pocket.
A search of Flores' car turned up 13 baggies of cocaine and fentanyl, according to Crime Stoppers. He was arrested on trafficking charges.
Flores was released from jail on certain conditions, which include drug tests. Crime Stoppers says he has failed to show up for one.
Flores has been arrested more than 30 times, on charges including burglary, grand theft, fraud and robbery.
Flores is 5 feet 7 inches, weighs 160 pounds and has several tattoos, including three dots under his right eye, the phrase "laugh now, cry later" on his chest and words on his hands. He was last known to be living in the Pine Manor area and has been known to use the alias Little Loco.
If you have information in this case, you are asked to contact Southwest Florida Crime Stoppers at 1-800-780-TIPS (8477), on the P3 app, or on its website. You can remain anonymous, and if your tip leads to an arrest, you may be eligible for a cash reward of up to $3,000.
