Heroin Bust in Altoona

Two Pittsburgh-area men are in jail and a third is wanted after Altoona police seized $100,000 in suspected heroin. Raemon Prunty, 20, and Sirjihad Valcin, 18, both of Braddock, are accused of driving to Altoona with 100 bricks of heroin – or 5,000 packets – after a police informant set up a deal Sunday night with 21-year-old Rasul Aquil, of Pittsburgh, according to Altoona police. Prunty and Valcin were arrested Monday at about 10:30 p.m. when they arrived in Altoona while Aquil remains wanted on felony and misdemeanor drug charges.
