HAMILTON, NJ — A significant drug bust in Hamilton Township, New Jersey, has led to the arrest of 35-year-old James Nalbone Jr., who is now facing charges after investigators discovered over $1 million worth of illegal drugs in his home, vehicle, and a storage unit. The arrest followed a month-long investigation into cocaine distribution.
Authorities executed a search in August at Nalbone’s residence on Byron Avenue using a police K9.
They uncovered six kilograms of suspected cocaine, 130 pounds of suspected marijuana, and 2,000 suspected oxycodone pills. Additionally, police found four firearms, including a defaced ghost gun, and approximately $65,000 in cash.
The seized items also included drug paraphernalia and equipment used for distributing drugs.
The arrest marks a significant crackdown on drug distribution activities in the area. Further legal proceedings are expected as the investigation continues.
