A Monroe resident was the victim of a burglary during the overnight hours in the area of Worlds Fair Dr. The unknown suspect(s) broke a window to the victim’s vehicle to gain access. The suspect(s) removed a purse from the vehicle, which contained $15. credit cards, and identification. A Hispanic male was captured on surveillance using the victim’s credit card at a local business to buy $157 worth of merchandise. The suspect attempted more transactions, but they were declined.
During the afternoon hours, patrol responded to a residence in the area of Bering Way on a report of a burglary in progress involving suspects with weapons. After clearing the residence and confirming the occupants were safe the investigation revealed that the incident was the result of “swatting.” The false report/call was made by an unknown suspect from outside the state of New Jersey. The occupants were unaware of the reported incident prior to the arrival of patrol.
