Suspected drug dealers arrested

Costa Mesa Police arrested two men Wednesday night on suspicion of

selling drugs from their Victoria Street home.

An undercover officer arrested 56-year-old Timothy Sweetland and

26-year-old Juan Galindo just after 9 p.m. Wednesday when they

allegedly tried to sell methamphetamines, Costa Mesa Police Sgt.

Marty Carver said.

Officers found more methamphetamines, cocaine and other narcotics

in the home in the 200 block of Victoria Street, he said.

The drugs, which Carver described as “low-grade,” had an estimated

street value of about $800.

Sweetland and Galindo are being held without bail because they

also had arrest warrants.
