Two women face charges after a state parole agent found drugs and drug paraphernalia in a Duncansville apartment during a supervision check on Oct. 3.

Duncansville Borough police were called when the agent saw in plain view a Swiss Army knife, burned aluminum foil, a clear stamp bag containing heroin/fentanyl and straws with white powder residue in a bedroom that had been occupied by Shannon Brubaker, 40, of Duncansville, and Amanda Frances Kozemchak, 25, of Altoona.

Brubaker is on state parole, court documents state.

The two women were detained and searched incident to arrest, with police locating $1,410 in Kozemchak’s pocket and several full bags of suspected heroin and empty wax packets in her bra.

On Brubaker, police found a clear bag containing suspected crystal methamphetamine.

Brubaker told police she met Kozemchak on Oct. 2 and brought her to Duncansville. She said Kozemchak brought a bookbag with clothes and a black lock box.

Kozemchak told police she has known Brubaker for a while, though they never really hung out together. She admitted that she met Brubaker and was brought to her apartment on Oct. 2, court documents state.

When asked if there was anything in the residence, Kozemchak said there were three bundles of heroin, while Brubaker said if there was anything in the residence, it was Kozemchak’s, police reported.

The two were transported to the Duncansville Police Department, where an ambulance was called to transport Brubaker to the hospital after being told she might be overdosing because she had eaten heroin.

At the station, Kozemchak requested to use the restroom and as she was being escorted to the restroom, police noticed a blue item in her mouth consistent with a packet of heroin. When confronted by police, she swallowed the packet, later admitting it was an empty packet of heroin, court documents state.

A search warrant executed on the apartment turned up 174 packets of heroin, 2 grams of cocaine, 11 individual plastic containers of crack cocaine, two Suboxone strips, a variety of pills, multiple unused blue packets, a digital scale, multiple pipes and hypodermic needles, police reported.

Kozemchak was arraigned Tuesday and Brubaker was arraigned Wednesday on felony charges of possession with intent to deliver, conspiracy to possession with intent to deliver and misdemeanor charges of tampering with evidence, possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Unable to post $50,000 bail each, they were remanded to the Blair County Prison.

Brubaker’s preliminary hearing is set for Oct. 10 while Kozemchak’s preliminary hearing is set for

Oct. 17.

Both are to appear before Magisterial District Judge Paula M. Aigner.
