Police Find 910 Packets of Heroin During New Jersey Mall Parking Lot Bust

A New Jersey man faces drug dealing charges after being found with 910 packets of heroin in a mall parking lot.

A special Toms River Police enforcement team was doing surveillance on the Ocean County Mall Tuesday when they saw Iquan Smallโ€™s car pull into the parking lot, said police Thursday.

There was an active warrant out for the 23-year-old Seaside Heights man so police approached the car to arrest Small, said police.

A search during Smallsโ€™ arrest revealed 160 wax folds of heroin on him, said investigators. Officers then found another 750 wax folds โ€“ distributed in 15 bricks โ€“ in Smallโ€™s car, they said.

Police estimated the street value of the 910 packets of the powerful opioid at more than $5,000.

A judge arraigned Small on heroin distribution and possession charges and sent him to county jail in lieu of $100,000 bail, said police. [[373570681, C]]
