The Bucks County Herald gives the arrests as occurring this week and the searches on Monday; 30 March 2026 is used from NBC10's and LevittownNow's accounts of the Monday searches, while the arrests followed them.
The 40 pounds of marijuana is reported as a total with no product type, packaging or estimated street value given; it is converted at about 0.4536 kg per pound.
The Herald states the seized mushroom quantity as 200 grams while NBC10 gives 200 pounds; neither figure is used because mushrooms are outside the cannabis scope.
The Herald and LevittownNow describe three Philadelphia homes; a syndicated version of the Courier Times story reports four residences in the city and one in New Jersey, and this report follows the two opened accounts.
No court outcome beyond the charges and bail detention is reported, and the cases appear to be at the preliminary stage.
Only the police department's own statement underlies the figures; the two other accounts are local and regional news reports drawing on police and court records.
