  Alexis Inoa, 22, of NYC, and Carlos Herrera, 21, of NYC were charged with three counts of possession with intent to distribute, four counts of obtaining prescriptions by fraud, possession of a controlled dangerous substance, and conspiracy, police said.

  According to the DEA, there is a small group of people who target pharmacies. The Brick Police Street Crimes Unit learned that the Briar Mill Pharmacy was going to be the next target.
