GOSHEN – Two men, one from Middletown and the other from Montague, New Jersey have been arrested and charged with felony drug sales and related charges.
Ronald Lempka, 23, of Middletown, and Keanu Alicea, 29, of Montague, New Jersey, were both remanded to the Orange County Jail.
District Attorney David Hoovler said search warrants were executed at residences and vehicles in the Town of Wallkill and Montague.
“Over 150 grams of cocaine, over $28,000 and a defaced gun were recovered during the operation,” he said.
As alleged in charging documents and comments in court, a months-long undercover investigation into drug trafficking by the New York State Police Violence Gang and Narcotics Enforcement Team; Sussex New Jersey Guns, Gangs and Narcotics Task Force; Town of Wallkill and Middletown city police; and the Hudson Valley Crime Analysis Center assisted in the investigation.
