BRICK – Brick Township Police Chief David Forrester has released a statement in regards to misinformation spread across social media of a medical incident.
The incident occurred on August 22 around 3 p.m. in the Midstream’s neighborhood. Social media pages were reporting that a murder occurred in the neighborhood, with pictures showing several police cars parked outside a home on Midstreams Road. However, Brick Police has said this information is false.
“After a thorough investigation conducted jointly with our partners at the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office Crime Scene Investigations Division and the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office, it has been determined that the incident was a natural medical event. Any other allegations about this incident are false,” Chief Forrester said.
At no time were residents in danger, Chief Forrester confirmed.
“The Brick Township Police Department is committed to reporting accurate information once a full investigation is complete,” Chief Forrester said.
