Three arrested on drug distribution charges after traffic stop in Webster leads to discovery of crack cocaine, heroin, and locked safe box

WEBSTER — On Sunday, February 9, 2025, at about 6:18 p.m., Webster Police Officers Nicholas Trinque and Patrick Trainor were conducting stationary traffic enforcement on Main Street when they observed a grey 2002 Honda Accord with Massachusetts plates traveling eastbound with a headlight out.

“I pulled out of my parking spot, and activated the blue overhead lights, initiating a motor vehicle stop,” Officer Trinque said. “The vehicle traveled approximately 100 feet before turning right onto Church Street where they eventually stopped. I exited my cruiser and approached the vehicle where I observed four occupants.”

The operator of the vehicle was identified as Sean Lucier, the registered owner.

“While speaking with Mr. Lucier, I observed the rear, left side passenger, later identified as Cameron Andrews, not wearing a seat belt,” Officer Trinque said. “He was also wearing a black ski style mask preventing me from seeing his face. Mr. Andrews is known to Officer Trainor.”

According to police, Cameron C. Andrews, 31, is a resident of Lake Street in Webster, MA.

Officer Trinque said Andrews appeared nervous when he asked him for his identification.

“He would not look at me and his voice was shaky,” Officer Trinque said. “When he was speaking to me his hand was visibly shaking. Mr. Andrews informed me he did not have a license and provided me with a false name of Caleb Andrews who is his brother. When I asked for his date of birth (DOB), he first told me January 2, but then corrected it to June 2 of 1898. When I repeated 1898 back to him, he nervously corrected it to 1998. With my observations in mind, I asked him for his social security number (SSN), to which he provided me 01[X]-[XX]-[XXXX].”

At this time, Officer Trinque went back to his cruiser and entered Andrews’ information into the Mobile Data Terminal (MDT) in his cruiser.

“The results did not come back to anyone. Officer Trainor advised me to conduct an inquiry into ‘Cameron Andrews,’” Officer Trinque said. “When doing this, the inquiry indicated Cameron had an active warrant. I then exited the cruiser and approached the vehicle to ask Mr. Andrews again for his information to which he provided me with a SSN of 01[X]-[XX]-[XXXX].”

Officer Trinque then called out to Andrews using the name “Cameron,” and he responded.

“When he did this, the female in the rear, right side of the vehicle told me she was his girlfriend and that Cameron was his brother,” Officer Trinque said. “I told him to remove the ski mask. When he did so, I told him to exit the vehicle as I was able to positively identify him as Cameron Andrews at that time.”

Officer Trinque said that when Andrews was exiting the vehicle, a glass pipe with burn marks on one end, fell from his person and broke on the pavement.

“From my training, I know this pipe to be consistent with those used to smoke crack cocaine,” Officer Trinque said.

At this time, Officer Trinque informed Andrews that he was under arrest for his active arrest warrant.

“I placed Mr. Andrews in handcuffs behind his back and double locked them,” Officer Trinque said. “Mr. Andrews was secured in the back of cruiser #511 for the remainder of the investigation.”

Officer Trainor requested additional units, and Sergeant Robert Larochelle, Officer Spencer Donovan, Officer Francheska Cedeno, and Officer Nicholas Caruso responded to the scene.

“We then had the right-side rear passenger identified as Nicole Packard exit the vehicle,” Officer Trinque said. “Once out of the vehicle, Ms. Packard handed her black, crossbody style bag to Officer Trainor and informed him there were needles in the bag.”

According to police, Nicole L. Packard, 34, is a resident of Main Street in Webster, MA.

Officer Trinque reported that Sergeant Larochelle instructed the driver, Lucier, to exit the vehicle, while Officer Caruso directed the front passenger, identified as Kimberly Daniels, to do the same.

According to police Kimberly A. Daniels, 40, is a resident of Ramshorn Road in Charlton, MA.

“Officer Trainor and Officer Caruso then began to search the vehicle,” Officer Trinque recounted. “During the search, Officer Trainor found what appeared to be crack cocaine in the back part of the front passenger seat in front of where Ms. Packard was sitting. Ms. Packard was placed in handcuffs (double locked) by Officer Donovan. Ms. Packard stated that Mr. Andrews had given her the crack that was in the back of the seat. When Officer Donovan removed her winter hat from her head, a large off-white and rock-like [substance] fell from her hat as well, believed to be crack cocaine.”

According to Officer Trinque, Officer Trainor also found a locked, black safe box in the back seat of the vehicle between where Andrews and Packard were seated.

When Officer Trainor asked Packard whose box it was, she said it was Andrews’.

“She then stated they just picked up cocaine and that it was inside the lock box,” Officer Trinque said. “Ms. Packard willingly told Officer Trainor the combination to unlock it.”

Officer Trinque said Officer Trainor unlocked the lock box using the code provided by Packard. Inside, he found Packard’s W-2, her wallet, a clear sandwich corner baggie containing a white powdery substance believed to be cocaine, a scale with white residue on it, packaging material commonly used for distributing illegal substances, and other miscellaneous items. Packard informed Officer Trainor that her wallet also contained a small bag of heroin. Upon checking, Officer Trainor found a clear, corner-cut baggie containing a brownish powdery substance—believed to be heroin—inside her wallet.

Officer Trinque stated that while Officer Trainor was searching the black safe box, Officer Cedeno conducted a search of Daniels. During the search, Officer Cedeno found a round silicone container in Daniels’ left sock containing an off-white, rock-like substance believed to be crack cocaine, along with a glass pipe containing burnt residue. Daniels confirmed that the silicone container held crack. She was placed in handcuffs, which were double-locked for safety. Daniels and Packard were then secured in the back of Officer Cedeno’s cruiser, who transported both to the Webster Police Department for booking.
