Police in North Wildwood, New Jersey, are asking for the public's help identifying two men suspected in a boardwalk assault over the weekend. The two were involved in an incident at 26th Street and the boardwalk on Saturday, according to the North Wildwood Police Department. Police shared still images taken from surveillance video and described both men as thin White males, one wearing pink shorts and the other wearing purple.
false alarm about an active shooter created a boardwalk stampede in Seaside Heights. In Ocean City, a reputedly family-friendly beach town where alcohol is not sold, a group of young men and boys were seen pummeling a teen on the boardwalk, and someone stabbed a 15-year-old. A group of New Jersey beach town mayors is hoping the state will back away from a recent push to lessen penalties for youthful offenders as they take aim at bad parenting amid an influx of teen mobs wreaking havoc on vacation communities.
