A Maine man found with more than 400 bags of heroin faces several charges after his arrest Saturday night in Massachusetts.

Steven Pearl, 36, of Patten faces charges of trafficking in heroin, possession of a Class B drug, unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle, attaching plates and driving an unregistered and uninsured vehicle.

Pearl was driving along Route 20 in Charlton, Massachusetts, Saturday night when a state trooper pulled him over for having license plates for another vehicle.

After a search of his car, police discovered 410 bags of heroin and one bag of crack cocaine.

Pearl is being held on $2,000 bail, and he is scheduled for arraignment Monday in Dudley District Court in Dudley, Massachusetts.
