Man arrested for selling crack


A former Oneonta man was arrested Tuesday for allegedly selling crack cocaine in the city of Oneonta in November, Otsego deputies said.

Michael N. Shires, 33, of Binghamton was arrested for third-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance, a felony, deputies said.

After an indictment was unsealed Tuesday in Otsego County Court, Shires was arraigned on charges that stemmed from a joint investigation by deputies, city police and state Division of Parole, deputies said.

Shires was sent to Otsego County Jail on $30,000 bail to appear next week to finish his arraignment.
