TOMS RIVER, NJ – On Wednesday, multiple law enforcement agencies executed search warrants at four different residences throughout Toms River. Those warrants resulted in the arrest of three suspected cocaine dealers.
The multi-agency operation targeted four residences in Toms River as being used by Christian Bultron-Rios, 37, Christian Bultron-Carmona, 18, and Anfernee Guzman-Romero, 26, all of Toms River, to store and distribute cocaine.
“The investigation determined that this organization was importing large quatities of cocaine into the Ocean County area, concealed in children’s toy boxes,” Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley Billhimer said today. “Over the course of the six-month-long investigation, all three defendants were observed distributing large amounts of cocaine throughout Ocean County.”
When police arrived at one of the homes, detectives observed Bultron-Rios exit carrying two children’s toy boxes. Bultron-Rios was subsequently detained and found to have approximately one pound of cocaine in each toy box. Bultron-Rios was thereafter placed under arrest.
“Multiple court-authorized search warrants were then executed on all of the subject residences. As a result, law enforcement seized – in combination from all four residences – additional quantities of cocaine and suboxone, a polymer assault rifle with high capacity magazine, a semi-automatic handgun, hollow point ammunition, and drug paraphernalia indicative of narcotics manufacturing and distribution. Guzman-Romero and Bultron-Carmona were subsequently placed under arrest at one of the subject residences,” Billhimer said.
Carmona does not appear to be lodged at the Ocean County Jail at this time. The other two offenders are still in custody.
