Charges have been dropped against a Trenton police officer, who fatally pepper-sprayed a man back in 2020. Officer Nicholas Piotrowski responded to a domestic dispute and was forced to arrest the man, for blocking access to the house.

Three people were charged in a shooting that injured four people in Verona back in March. It happened outside Palmetto Venues on Park Place, following an argument. Each suspect faces weapons offenses; one of them also faces aggravated assault.

Congratulations to Grant Feldman of Freehold Township High School, who recently received this year’s GE-Reagan Foundation Scholarship. The honor is given to just 10 recipients from 12,000 candidates across the country.
