Carlos Monterroso, 29, and Mario Yarleque, Jr., 33, are each charged with four counts related to possession and intent to distribute cocaine and marijuana. A judge in Ocean County Superior Court in Toms River set Monterroso's bail at $150,000, and Yarleque's bail at $50,000.

Investigators say that the arrests followed a month-long probe. Detectives from the prosecutor's Special Operations Group conducted a roadside stop of the white Infiniti carrying the pair on Route 9 in Waretown on Monday.

A search of the car, say authorities, revealed about 100 grams of cocaine with an estimated value of $10,000, and marijuana bagged for sale.

Under bail terms issued, neither defendant has the option of release upon payment of 10 percent of the total.
