Victor Garcia-Morla, Chelvin Castillo-Paula, and Anthony L. Medina Suarez remained held in the Bergen County Jail on Sunday, Oct. 21, pending first appearances in Hackensack.

Detectives from the prosecutor's Narcotic Task Force stopped their vehicle at an undisclosed location in the county.

They found the handguns, took all three into custody and charged them equally with illegal weapons and hollow-point possession, Musella said.
