If the police retrieve the bottles from the can without a warrant, would the defense be correct in moving the search be subject to the exclusionary rule?

An undercover security officer working for a chain supermarket located in New Jersey watches a suspicious male circling the liquor aisles with an empty shopping kart. The man waits for other patrons to leave the area and places four bottle of vodka inside his jacket. He then moves toward the exit. As he does so, he observes security at the door. He then picks up a bag of potatoes and proceeds to the cashier lanes. He pays for the potatoes and attempts to leave the store and is stopped by security. When security confronts the man about the shoplifting, he begins to cause a scene. The security officer searches the man and recovers the four bottles of vodka. He then has the man empty his pant pockets and observes two bags of what appears to be heroin mixed in with his personal papers. Police arrive on scene and the security officer provides details of his observations and the items recovered in his search of the accused. The security officer advises police that the entire event was captured on their surveillance system. The police arrest the suspect and take possession of the heroin and the four bottles of vodka. The security officer responds to the police station to provide a statement and copy of the surveillance video. The accused is charged with the shoplifting and the possession of the heroin. A. The defense would be able to move for exclusion because the garbage can was not under the control of the accused. B. The defense would not be able to move for exclusion because the property (the vodka bottles) was abandoned. C. The defense would be able to claim that because the man was unlawfully detained by the store. D. The defense would not be able to claim that because the vodka was still on store property.
