Maricopa police arrested a reported drug dealer outside his home last week. 

Officers arrested 21-year-old Dylan K. Rope on two drugs charges, according to a probable cause statement obtained by InMaricopa. 

At 10:15 p.m., an anonymous tipster told police a man was selling narcotics out of his car in front of a home on West Estrada Street in Senita. 

Cops knew Rope lived at that home and had an active, unspecified warrant out of Tucson.  

Police said they found Rope getting out of his car, holding drug paraphernalia. He was arrested and searched. The search yielded fentanyl pills and tin foil. 

Rope was booked into the Pinal County jail and faces 11 years in prison if convicted.
