CARVER (CBS) - Carver police's "Got Drugs" initiative got started a little early.

On Friday, an officer was posting informational fliers in support of the department's upcoming campaign, when he encountered Jaakob Kivi at Carver Gas and Convenience on Tremont Street.

Kivi, a Carver resident, had an active warrant out on him.

The officer, Sgt. Joseph Ritz, arrested Kivi, and while searching him, recovered 50 bags of a substance believed to be heroin.

Ritz also recovered a set of brass knuckles and a small amount of marijuana.

Kivi now faces a number of additional charges.

He was scheduled to be arraigned at the Wareham District Court on Monday.
