Local police and the Maine Drug Enforcement Agency arrested Marcel Seeley at the Lighthouse Inn, Lt. Derrick St. Laurent, public information officer for the Lewiston Police Department, said in a statement Tuesday. An investigation into suspected drug trafficking led police to him, St. Laurent said.
