Detectives arrested Ricky Lee Adami, 59, on suspicion of distributing food containing noxious/deleterious material.
An investigation revealed that a manager was preparing pizza when he observed an unknown substance mixed into the shredded cheese. The manager immediately stopped preparing pizza and reviewed surveillance footage to determine who prepared the shredded cheese.
The footage showed Adami preparing the cheese when he placed an unknown substance into the cheese shredder machine.
The manager contacted police and all contaminated cheese was identified and collected prior to being served to any customers.
Adami is currently at Cumberland County Detention Center on a $100,000 secured bond.
