A Galloway Township couple with alleged ties to a motorcycle gang were arrested with more than 5 ounces of methamphetamine and a loaded revolver, the Atlantic County prosecutor said.
Louis Hilton, 50, and Julie Naia, 49, were arrested last week as part of a multi-agency investigation that included the Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office Gangs, Guns and Narcotics Unit, FBI and local police.
The pair allegedly has ties to the Outlaws Motorcycle Club, according to evidence Atlantic County Prosecutor Damon Tyner said was seized during the arrest.
In addition to the drugs and .357 Magnum, investigators also found ammunition, drug paraphernalia and a large sum of money.
The two are charged with first-degree possession with intent to distribute, second-degree possession of a weapon during a drug offense, third-degree possession and second-degree conspiracy.
Hilton was additionally charged with possession of a weapon by a convicted felon.
Hilton was ordered detained as the result of a detention hearing Friday. Naia was released on a monitoring ankle bracelet and is required to report regularly.
