Description
Seven people have been arrested and charged in connection with an alleged social media drug ring at Rutgers University, authorities announced this week.
The sweeping undercover narcotics operation, known as “Operation RU Pharm,” uncovered a “closed and private social media network utilized by Rutgers University students to sell and purchase” drugs, Middlesex County Prosecutor Yolanda Ciccone said in a statement Thursday.
Authorities seized a large amount of marijuana, LSD, cocaine, psilocybin mushrooms, Adderall, Xanax, “a large amount of U.S. currency,” and a firearm, according to a news release from Ciccone’s office.
