A former North Braddock police officer is accused of trafficking cocaine and protecting the operation from police detection.

A grand jury recommended charges against Craig Gibson after prosecutors presented evidence showing that while Gibson was a police officer, he was also a drug runner who used privileged information to protect a supplier.

Gibson is facing several charges including obstruction, reckless endangerment and conspiracy.
