MBTA Bus Driver Charged With Selling Crack On Job

BOSTON (CBS) – An MBTA bus driver was set free on $1,000 bail Friday, charged with dealing drugs on the job.

Police arrested 46-year-old Cynthia King of Brockton Thursday afternoon. Officers say they searched her and found an "undisclosed amount" of money and cocaine.

She's charged with possession with intent to distribute.

Prosecutors say they were led to King following a tip that she was selling crack cocaine on her route.

She was arraigned Friday afternoon in South Boston District Court and ordered to undergo random drug testing and to stay away from the MBTA.

King is due back in court May 31.
