Police located the stolen gun, and also uncovered packages of Suboxone. Suboxone is a prescription drug used in opioid dependence treatment, but which also can be addictive itself. Police then searched Quiles’ apartment on Bulkeley Avenue and found a second gun and Fentanyl.

Quiles is facing multiple gun and drug-related charges. He also had a warrant for previous larceny charge in Manchester.
