Riverside – This past week, the Riverside Police were actively patrolling an area within the township after several citizens reported seeing activity related to narcotics distribution.

After a brief investigation in which the suspect provided a false name to police, the driver was eventually identified as Rocco L. Wing, 48 yrs, of Philadelphia, Pa. Wing was found to have an active WARRANT for his arrest out of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for a parole violation in 2021 in relation to illegal narcotics offenses. Wing was wanted for approximately two years before being stopped by the Riverside officer.
