The Delaware County Drug Task Force and Upper Darby Police raided a house in Upper Darby early Friday and confiscated $800 in cash and $10,000 worth of crystal methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia, police said.

John McGinnis, 51, and Marc Danielson, 43, who lived in the house at 115 N. Madison Street were arrested and were in jail in Delaware County on $75,000 cash bail and $50,000 cash bail, respectively, Upper Darby Police Superintendent Michael Chitwood said Sunday.

Police acted after receiving calls about drug dealing at that location. "We brought informants in, and we made undercover buys," Chitwood said. "We were able to get enough probable cause to get a search warrant, and, with the Delaware County Drug Task Force, we hit the house at 6 a.m. Friday."
