A Fall River man is accused of shipping cocaine in the mail from California, according to the U.S. Attorney’s office.

 

Justin Dupras, 42, is charged with attempting to possess cocaine with intent to distribute.

 

Dupras allegedly mailed a package containing about two kilograms of cocaine from Los Angeles to Fall River on Dec. 17, 2024, prosecutors said.

 

Two days later, Dupras arrived at the Fall River post office, where another person reportedly signed for the package and handed it to him. He was arrested later that day by Fall River police.

 

Investigators say Dupras did this on prior occasions, including mailing a package from Chino Hills, California, to Fall River on Sept. 17, 2024, and from Los Angeles to Fall River on Oct. 29, 2024.
