Man charged after weapons, ammo cache found in Pinelands
LACEY TWP., N.J. -- A Trenton man faces numerous charges after authorities say they found a large cache of weapons and ammunition in the New Jersey Pinelands.
Lacey police were in the area Sunday afternoon looking for trespassers and criminal activity when they came across a suspicious vehicle.
They soon found 42-year-old Bruce Post III, who was dressed in combat gear, and another man nearby.
Investigators found an AK-47, a 9mm handgun, eight 30-round magazines, a 100-round drum magazine and other ammunition they say was hidden in the woods.
Post was charged with illegally possessing a weapon as a felon and several weapons counts. His bail was set at $400,000 cash.
It wasn't known Monday if Post has retained an attorney.
The other man hasn't been charged. But authorities say the investigation is ongoing.
