Officer Gregory Slater stopped a 2013 silver Volkswagen that was speeding on North Prospect Avenue late Thursday and spotted empty glassine envelopes and rubber bands in the car, Capt. Mustafa Rabboh said.
A search turned up 45 envelopes of heroin and a dozen empties, he said.
Slater arrested the driver, 29-year-old borough resident, Angel L. Hruska, on drug and paraphernalia possession charges. He also wrote summonses for careless driving and possession of drugs in a motor vehicle.
Police released Hruska pending a March 8 court hearing.
In a Facebook message, Hruska said she want to "get back to her life and the people and things she loves."
