Druggie roommate

I have a roommate who I believe is involved in hard drugs. I don't know if he is dealing or just sharing. I would like to know what is the quickest way to get him out of my apartment.

Re: Druggie roommate

You can start a summary proceeding to have him evicted.

More direct, call the police and explain the situation and your roomate's purported illegal activity.
