CONCORD - A Dover man was sentenced on Monday to two to four years in state prison after pleading guilty to possession of carfentanil and cocaine when he was busted by county drug task force members and Dover police in October of last year.
Keith Colado, 43, formerly of Littleworth Road, drew the sentence for possession of more than 5 grams of the controlled drug carfentanil as well as cocaine during his Oct. 11, 2017, arrest.
The bust unfolded as members of the Strafford County Drug Task Force and the Dover Police Department surveilled Colado as he appeared to meet with a suspected narcotics dealer in a Dover parking lot for a drug transaction. Law enforcement subsequently stopped Colado and found cocaine on his person during the roadside stop.
Following his arrest, police searched Colado and located carfentanil.
Colado has the opportunity, to earn 6 months off the minimum portion of his sentence if certain conditions are met. Colado was also sentenced to a consecutive suspended New Hampshire State Prison sentence of 2-4 years for possession of over one half gram of the controlled drug cocaine.
