State troopers didn't have to go far to make a drug arrest Tuesday night. In fact, they didn't even have to leave the Totowa barracks.

Four men were arrested after troopers said they were caught smoking marijuana in a car parked in the barracks lot on Minisink Road. Trooper Erik Tapia pulled into the lot to prepare for a night on patrol and smelled a "strong odor" of marijuana from a 2002 Oldsmobile Intrigue several cars away, Lt. Stephen Jones said in a release.

"The occupants were obviously not expecting to see a trooper in the parking lot of the State Police barracks," Jones said. Paterson residents Isaias Parrilla, 22, Hensly Nunez, 21, Bernardo Cuevas, 23, and Tamer Abdelrahim, 22, of West Paterson all were charged with possession of marijuana and suspected ecstasy pills.
