TOMS RIVER, N.J. — A man is being held without bail in Ocean County following his arrest on multiple drug charges, including operating a drug production facility and possessing large quantities of marijuana with intent to distribute.
Andres Mauricio Restrepo-Gil was taken into custody Thursday and booked into the county jail. Authorities say he’s facing charges tied to the possession and distribution of over five pounds of marijuana, along with other controlled substances.
Officials also charged Restrepo-Gil with using drug paraphernalia and running a facility used to manufacture illegal drugs — a first-degree offense under New Jersey law.
Immigration authorities have also placed a detainer on Restrepo-Gil, meaning federal officials have requested he be held for possible immigration-related action.
He remains in custody at the Ocean County jail with no release date scheduled.
