SKOWHEGAN — State police are seeking a Massachusetts man on drug trafficking charges stemming from a traffic stop he allegedly fled in Skowhegan earlier this month.

The Maine State Police obtained an arrest warrant for Braylin Nunez, 25, of Lawrence, Massachusetts, the agency said in a statement Tuesday. Nunez is wanted on charges of aggravated trafficking on a schedule W drug, aggravated furnishing of a schedule W drug and refusal to submit to arrest or detention.

Police are asking anyone with information that may help locate Nunez to call the Maine State Police Central Field Troop Division at 207-624-7076, ext. 9, and ask to speak with Trooper Jackson.

A state trooper stopped a 2021 Toyota Tacoma for a traffic violation the evening of Sept. 12, police said.

Two people were subsequently arrested, while a third person fled the scene, police said. An investigation since then led police to identify Nunez as the person who fled.

Police say they seized 354 grams of suspected crack cocaine from the truck.

The others arrested were Ruth Crandall, 57, of Rockland, and Taylor Meader, 26, of Sidney, state police said. Crandall was arrested and charged with unlawful furnishing of a schedule W drug and unlawful possession of a schedule W drug. Meader was arrested and charged with unlawful trafficking of a schedule W drug.

The state police were in the Skowhegan area that night conducting a detail for enforcing operating under the influence laws, spokesperson Shannon Moss said. Since its restructuring a few years ago, the agency does not patrol Somerset County on a regular basis.
