GUTTENBERG AND BEYOND — Guttenberg police have arrested three men they say were associated with the Bloods, a well-known national gang.
Following two weeks of investigation and surveillance, three men were arrested after video showed them allegedly dealing guns out of a house on 68th Street in Guttenberg, police say.
“We had them on video [allegedly] passing around guns. It looked like they were [allegedly] dealing cocaine out of the house as well,” said Investigator Joseph Torello.
Police then obtained a warrant to search the house on June 15 and allegedly found a 21-year-old resident in possession of a revolver and bullets.
“We only got him with one weapon but we believe there was a second,” lead investigator Joseph Keselica said.
With the aid of the Hudson County SWAT team, the Gang Unit of the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office, North Bergen Police, and other police units, two more men that were initially captured on the surveillance video were later found and arrested.
