Oxford Circle: The New Nolibs?

Police officers in Oxford Circle Friday investigated a shooting and ended up with $6 million in cocaine.

Yes, that’s right: After being shot at a house on Levick Street, Darnell Romel Bolger wandered the area until collapsing on a median. That’s where police officers, including one from narcotics, found him. After hearing his yarn, cops — not the narcotics officer, naturally — went to the Levick Street house and entered. They were looking to see if there were any more gunshot victims. Right. They didn’t find any gunshot victims, but they did find 61 kilos of cocaine (worth a cool $6.1 mil) and various other drugs.

Bolger is now under arrest and drugs have been eradicated from our city’s streets. Well, not that last part, but the drug bust was significant:

“This was a stash location. For the most part if drugs were being sold out of this location, it was to an elite clientèle, and in large quantities of drugs.”

Yeah. That big Oxford Circle elite. Always doing coke and being photographed for lifestyle magazines and generally being all upscale. That’s what I think of when I hear Oxford Circle.
