A 34-year-old man accused of being involved in a Saratoga County drug distribution ring pleaded guilty Tuesday.

Felix “Lucky” Moran, no address given, admitted to two counts each of third-degree criminal possession, seventh-degree possession and third-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance.

Saratoga Springs police arrested him in February, seizing packets of heroin, several ounces of cocaine and thousands of dollars in cash.

They said he and another man distributed several ounces of cocaine and a large amount of heroin every few days in Saratoga Springs and were involved in up to $10,000 a week in drug sales.

Moran is to be sentenced in July.
