2 Arrested in Drug Bust

Christopher Doty and Kristen Cataldo are scheduled to be arraigned Monday

Police have arrested two Amesbury, Massachusetts, residents they described as substantial drug dealers who were allegedly selling heroin and cocaine from their home in a residential neighborhood.

Christopher Doty and Kristen Cataldo are scheduled to be arraigned Monday in Newburyport District Court on drug and child endangerment charges.

They were arrested Saturday when police executed a search warrant on their home. Lt. William Scholtz tells The Newburyport Daily News (http://bit.ly/1uOxH5k ) that police seized roughly 12 grams of cocaine and heroin, along with more than $7,500 in cash, and several weapons including a blowgun, a stun gun and several double edged knifes.

Police say the couple was selling drugs from the home with two children present.

It's not clear if the defendants have lawyers.
