Authorities arrested a man in Grand Terrace for possession of a large amount of narcotics in Grand Terrace on Friday. 

San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department deputies investigating reports of a drug dealer making hand-to-hand sales on Grand Terrace Road and Canal Street.

He was found to have multiple active warrants and was in possession of 19 kilograms, or nearly 42 pounds of cocaine.
