Investigators watched the Kingsland Avenue home 43-year-old Charles Quiroz for two weeks before moving in with a search warrant on Thursday, Bergen County Prosecutor John L. Molinelli said this afternoon.

They arrested Quiroz after discovering “multiple bags of cocaine, numerous oxycodone pills” and the cash, the prosecutor said.

Quiroz was being held on $35,000 bail in the Bergen County Jail after being arraigned Thursday on charges of possession with the intent to distribute cocaine and Oxcodone within 1,000 feet of Lyndhurst High School Lighthouse Campus.
