The Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office Special Victims Unit has arrested a 44-year-old Guttenberg man on charges he endangered the welfare of his three-year-old son after the child was hospitalized and tested positive for methadone.
Roberto Delgado-Gonzalez, age 44, of Guttenberg, has been charged with Endangering the Welfare of a Child in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:24-4A(2), a crime of the second degree.
