ARGUED SEPTEMBER 28, 2010

Before EASTERBROOK, Chief Judge, and SYKES and TINDER, Circuit Judges.

Derrick Bullock pleaded guilty to possession with intent to distribute at least five grams but less than fifty grams of cocaine base (“crack”) in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). His plea was conditioned on his ability to appeal the district court’s denial of his motion to suppress evidence of the crack that led to his conviction. The events giving rise to Bullock’s arrest began when Detective John Greenlee of the Fort Wayne Police Department received an anonymous tip that someone by the name of “Quick” was selling cocaine from a residence on Euclid Street. Based on the information provided by the tipster, Greenlee was able to determine the address of the residence and that “Quick” was Bullock. Greenlee began surveillance of the residence and corroborated the tip by observing Bullock leaving the residence on several occasions and engaging in activity indicative of drug dealing. Armed with this information, Greenlee obtained a warrant to search the Euclid Street address.
