A drug raid in Rahway, New Jersey this past Friday resulted in the arrest of four individuals when police discovered dozens of bags filled with crack cocaine. Police had been investigating several individuals whom they suspected of drug related activity for over a month before Friday night's raid.  Police entered an apartment shared by two of the individuals arrested where they found packaged crack that would hold a $3,500 street value, along with distribution materials and a firearm. The four individuals arrested for this crime are currently being held in jail after being charged with intent to distribute within 500 feet of a public house.
