A monthlong undercover investigation led to the arrests, the prosecutor says.
A pair of alleged drug dealers were charged this month after a raid on their Phillipsburg home.
The arrests follow a monthlong undercover investigation, according to the Warren County Prosecutors Office.
Authorities on Oct. 14 searched the home of 27-year-old Paul J. Madlock and 34-year-old Alisha Zeigler in the 200 block of Prospect Street, the prosecutor said in a news release.
Madlock is charged with one count each of distribution of meth, possession and possession with intent to distribute. Zeigler is charged with three counts of possession of prescription drugs. Both had their first appearance Monday at state Superior Court in Belvidere.

If convicted, Madlock's second-degree distribution charges each carry a maximum sentence of 10 years in state prison and a $150,000 fine. All of Zeigler's charges are fourth degree, meaning she faces up to 18 months in prison and a $10,000 fine.
Phillipsburg police, the Drug Enforcement Agency and the prosecutor's office conducted the investigation.
