When he was asked to come outside, investigators said the man was seen taking pieces of folded tinfoil out of his pockets before placing them on a chair.
The pockets reportedly contained suspected fentanyl.
Police said they recognized the man, who was already wanted on previous criminal charges, and placed him under arrest.
A search then led to investigators finding suspected crack cocaine, a large amount of cash and a scale among other items on the accused.
