On a cold December night State Police raided an apartment in the 300 block of Richmond Avenue, Point Pleasant Beach, Ocean County, New Jersey. The investigators seized 1.5 lbs. of marijuana; prescription drugs; weapons including brass knuckles, daggers, a machete, metal asp and a BB gun; drug paraphernalia; and $23,350 in cash.
Four individuals were arrested and charged with various drug possession and weapon possession crimes. Two individuals were charged with more serious offenses and released after posting $15,000 full cash bail. These criminal charges will be resolved in the future in New Jersey Superior Court.
The other two individuals were released on criminal summonses for possession of marijuana under 50 grams. These two individuals may be eligible for a conditional discharge in municipal court, if they qualify.
