CONCORD - A Merrimack man pleaded guilty in federal court to possession of fentanyl with intent to distribute, the U.S. Attorneys Office announced on Monday.

According to court documents and statements made in court, on February 1, Hudson patrol officers stopped a car in which Nicholas Snow, 26, was a passenger.

Both the driver and Snow had suspended licenses. An officer later determined that Snow was in possession of a pouch containing fentanyl, a scale, packaging materials, and $655 in cash. In his post-arrest interview, Snow admitted to drug distribution activities in Hudson. Snow's cell phone also revealed communications about drug deals.

Snow is scheduled to be sentenced on March 22.

The case was investigated by Hudson Police and is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Joachim H. Barth.
