Berkeley police officers had to force their way into a Frederick Drive apartment after they received a call about an unresponsive woman recently, Police Chief Karin T. DiMichele said.

Patrolman Michael Riccardelli, Patrolman Rodney Flanegan and Patrolman David Burke responded to a call for a well-being check at 9:41 a.m. on Nov. 1, the chief said.

They found the woman on the floor, unresponsive but still breathing. They also found multiple items of controlled dangerous substance paraphernalia on a table. It took two doses of Narcan to revive the woman. She was taken to Community Medical Center in Toms River for further medical treatment, DiMichele said.
