A Glen Rock golf instructor was arrested Friday on charges of selling cocaine, Bergen County Prosecutor John J. Fahy said Saturday.
Rodney R. Frith, 31, of 36 Grover Terrace was charged with possession of cocaine with intent to distribute and was being held Saturday in the Bergen County Jail on $100,000 bail, Fahy said. Fahy said Frith works as a golf pro at Hillman’s Golfland in Elmwood Park.
A friend of Frith’s, Ceser Brienza, a Chestnut, N.Y., rubbish removal company owner, also was being held on the same amount of bail on the same charge, Fahy said.
Fahy said that Brienza, who had sold cocaine to Bergen County narcotics agents on two previous occasions, brought Frith with him to a Friday night rendezvous in Hackensack with people who, unknown to the suspects, were county narcotics agents. The meeting occurred behind Channel Home Center in Hackensack. They were taken into custody about 6:05 p.m.
Agents seized 1 kilogram of cocaine, with an approximate value of $25,000.
