Two Cal U Hockey Players from Baldwin Arrested
The brothers are accused of running a marijuana operation, according to reports.
Two California University of Pennsylvania ice hockey players were arrested in a drug bust on Tuesday, according to WPXI.
Steve Powell and his brother Jesse, reportedly brothers from Baldwin, are accused of having marijuana shipped to their 2nd Street house in Washington County from the state of California and then selling it.
The brothers both played ice hockey for Baldwin High School. Jesse was the team's leading scorer during the 2011-12 season when Baldwin won a Pennsylvania Interscholastic Hockey League section title. He also helped a Baldwin team to win an Amateur Athletic Union state championship in roller hockey.
