A subsequent search of his home in Lodi resulted in the seizure of approximately 200 additional grams of cocaine and a .380 caliber handgun, the prosecutor said.

Suarez was arrested on several drug and weapons charges, Suarez said.

Suarez credited the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office Narcotics Task Force, the Secaucus Police Department, the Secaucus Police Department K-9 Unit, and the Lodi Police Department with the investigation and arrest.
