SOMERVILLE -- After police made what they called the biggest drug bust in the city's history and escorted four alleged drug dealers away in handcuffs, neighbors along Franklin Street expressed their gratitude in a very public way, with a round of applause. "We gave them attaboys," said Albert Correia, who lives across the street from the two-family house in East Somerville that had been watched by city police for nearly seven months. "We were happy to see it." Middlesex District Attorney Gerard T. Leone Jr. said the Thursday night seizure of nearly a kilogram of heroin should have a "significant impact on drug trafficking in this area and in New England" and enhance public safety by reducing petty crime committed by drug users. He spoke at a press conference attended by Mayor Joseph Curtatone and Police Chief Robert Bradley. Drugs, guns, and money seized in the bust were displayed on a table. The raid netted $5,625 in cash and drugs worth an estimated $500,000. Two men and two women were charged. Ricardo L. Gomez, 38; Raymundo Baez, 31; Fiorlenis Jimenez, 22; and Xiomara A. Ortiz, 43, pleaded not guilty to heroin trafficking and other charges at arraignment yesterday in Somerville District Court.
