ATLANTIC CITY, NJ – On Thursday, a surveillance operation was conducted in the 1500 to 1700 blocks of Atlantic Avenue by the Atlantic City Police Department’s Special Investigations Sections, the DEA Atlantic City Resident Office, and the Liberty Mid-Atlantic DEA Atlantic County HIDTA task force. The operation aimed to address ongoing complaints from businesses and the public concerning illegal narcotics distribution and quality of life issues in the area of Renaissance Plaza.

As a result, four adults were arrested and charged with various CDS violations. Authorities recovered suspected heroin, distribution amounts of suspected cocaine, and U.S. currency during the operation. Two of the arrested individuals had active warrants for their arrest. The arrested individuals were identified as Jacque Randall (54), Sean Williams (55), Bryant Gilliam (51), and Zyshon Baker-Lane (24), all of Atlantic City.

Randall and Williams were issued summonses but were remanded to the Atlantic County Justice Facility due to active warrants. Gilliam and Baker-Lane were released on summonses pending a future court date. The public is reminded that charges are mere allegations, and the accused are considered innocent until proven guilty.


Anyone with information about the distribution of narcotics is urged to contact the Atlantic City Police Department Special Investigations Section at 609-347-5858 or text anonymously to tip411 (847411).
