Berkeley police recently arrested a Marquis Drive man after a traffic stop that led to the discovery of "multiple folds" of heroin, Police Chief Karin T. DiMichele said.

Patrolman Michael Tanis stopped Christopher Corradino, 32, on Jan. 15 for speeding. Police soon discovered that Corradino had an outstanding Ocean County warrant for receiving stolen property, the chief said.

When Tanis, Patrolmen Scott Rudolph and Michael Ptaszenski went to Corradino's house to serve the warrant, they found he had multiple folds of heroin and hypodermic syringes in his possession, DiMichele said.

Corradino was taken into custody without incident. He was transported to the Ocean County Jail in Toms River in lieu of $10,000 bail, the chief said..
