4 Arrested as Police Seize Cash, Narcotics

Narcotics detectives arrested three men and a woman and seized heroin, cocaine and more than $17,000 in cash after watching an alleged drug deal at an apartment complex.

Police say detectives last week saw several people picking up drugs at an apartment complex at 1776 W. Glencrest Ave.

The detectives stopped the suspect’s vehicle, confiscated six ounces of heroin and $1,447 in cash, and arrested four Anaheim residents: Benito Lopez Maldonado, 41, Jose Manuel Montano, 26, and Floriberto Montano, 32, on suspicion of possession of a controlled substance for sale, and Martha Urzua, 27, on a felony narcotics warrant, police said.

Detectives then secured search warrants for three other locations and seized 27 ounces of heroin, 30 ounces of cocaine and $14,531 in cash at a Glencrest Avenue apartment, and $1,404 at another spot, police said.
