4 nabbed on drug charges while stuck in traffic jam during prisoner capture

...Buckel was located in the woods off the Garden State Parkway northbound near exit 77 in Lacey Township. As swarms of officers descended on Buckel's location around 11:30 AM...traffic on the parkway came to a standstill...
