There had been suspicious and, as it turns out inauspicious and illegal activity, occurring at a home on Homestead Drive in Brick Township.

This is what neighbors and nearby residents were telling Brick Police and it ignited an investigation looking into the claims, reports of something nefarious going on in that residence, belonging to the Russo family, with the type of foot traffic in particular.

Brick Police said that their Street Crimes Unit Detectives pulled over a vehicle on July 18, around 7:30 pm, related to their ongoing investigation and found the driver, 43-year-old Ricardo Calderon of Elizabeth in possession of approximately 100 suspected Fentanyl pills, approximately 9 grams of cocaine, and more than 100 wax folds containing heroin in his vehicle along with a large but undisclosed amount of cash.
