Officers Philip Nobile, Joseph Lanfrank, Nicholas Nobre and Sgt. Anthony Mobilio responded to the 9:30 p.m. call from the Wawa gas station on Essex Street, Detective Capt. Donald Scorzetti said this morning.

“The caller reported that the victim had ingested heroin approximately 15 minutes prior to [their] arrival,” Scorzetti said.

A first dose administered by Nobile had no effect, but a second about five minutes later brought her around, the captain said.

She was “still in a sedated state,” however, he said.

The Lodi Volunteer Ambulance Rescue squad took her to Hackensack University Medical Center.
