HE HAD THAT GUCCI! DRUG DEALERS GET ARRESTED AFTER THEY BOASTED ON MYSPACE SAYING THEY MAKE $250,000 A YEAR!

A gang of drug dealers - including one pusher who brought his toddler along while selling his wares - was busted Wednesday for peddling heroin and crack in a Crown Heights housing project.
The crew flooded the six buildings that make up the Albany Houses with drugs they sold in $10 glassine vials inside apartments, hallways and stairwells, officials said.

During the year-long investigation by the NYPD and Special Narcotics Prosecutors, undercover cops bought fistfulls of drugs - sold under such brand names as "Gucci," "Now and Later," "Power," and "Carabela."

Investigators last week videotaped one dealer holding his young son's hand as he walked to pick up $50 worth of "Power" and deliver it to an undercover officer, a law enforcement source said.

"That's horrible," said Samantha Hicks, 16, who lives in a Troy Ave. building in the housing complex. "Little kids shouldn't be around stuff like that."

The gang's leader has yet to be arrested, but six of his drug dealing cohorts were picked up by cops during an early morning raid of 11 apartments, where small amounts of heroin, crack and marijuana and packaging material were found.

"This is a black eye for the neighborhood," said a resident who identified himself as Aguilera E. and has lived in the complex for a quarter century.

One of the alleged dealers, Tyrell Blue, boasted on his MySpace page - where he dubs himself "handsome.Rell" - that his income is more than $250,000.

In one photo he posted, Blue took a shot of himself with a cellphone holding a wad of cash with a $100 billion label wrapped around it.

Blue, 21, and his older brother Cory, 29, were charged with multiple counts of criminal sale of a controlled substance, as were Lashaun Mitchell, 25; Oscar Garcia, 28; Shakim Jenkins, 25; and Luke Arthur, 49.

They all face a maximum of nine to 15 years behind bars if convicted.

Another eight people were rounded up on misdemeanor drug charges. In one of the apartments investigators found a handgun by a window and a loaded magazine nearby, authorities said.
