The warrant was obtained after an investigation revealed heroin was being sold from the home, according to authorities. Task force members arrested Martinez, Cintron and Giordano at the scene after authorities said heroin bagged for distribution and U.S. currency was located at the home.

Horsham Magisterial District Judge Harry Nesbitt set a cash bail of $50,000 for Martinez; $500,000 for Cintron; and $250,000 for Giordano. The men were remanded to the custody of Montgomery County Correctional Facility in lieu of bail.
