PATERSON

— City police found $10,000 worth of abandoned heroin in a vacant lot on Saturday after a group left the area.

Paterson police found 20 bricks and 40 loose glassine packets of heroin in a vacant lot at 99 North Main Street, Capt. Troy Oswald said on Tuesday. Detectives found the heroin early on Saturday after spotting a group hanging out in the lot. The group left when police arrived, and so detectives searched the area. The heroin has a street value of roughly $10,000, Oswald said.

Oswald said that no arrests have been made and that the incident is still under investigation.
