Police said a man who tried to break-into a house in Steubenville now faces drug trafficking charges.

Police said they stopped D'eon Stinson, 32, at a house along Oregon Avenue Saturday around 4 a.m. When police shined their spotlight in his direction, Stinson allegedly dropped a plastic bag of 10 individually wrapped pieces of crack cocaine. The drugs came to about 5 grams worth, making it a felony drug trafficking charge. Stinson was taken to the Jefferson County Jail and then released due to the jail's financial situation.
