We are very fortunate to be able to hire these additional officers to keep up with our ever growing township which will ensure the safety of our residents.”
Why does lakewood need MORE police Officers??? Lakewood is low crime…
Take the tax dollars and use it for something that is more of an necessity…
We don’t need police officers managing construction sites… ridiculous!!!
Weren’t 100 tires slashed one recent Shabbos?
If you think Lakewood is low crime, you must not live here. Incidents involving children and traffic accidents are increasing monthly. Wake up.
Shows how much you know. . . The construction site police are paid privately. They are off duty cops.
Lakewood probably can use more police, not sure that’s a problem. And they do the construction jobs on their off days, I think. It’s actually a good idea for them to supplement their income. Wish someone would come up with idea for rebbeim to make more money, like $100 per hour, in their off time.
I do think Lakewood police should focus more on developing their skills. Seems pretty rare that we hear about crimes that are solved
I never knew Alexander Guzman was Jewish! How about them apples…
The Guzman’s are good people!
Godspeed and stay safe, all of LPD! Thank you for all that you do!
Alexander guzman isnt jewish silly @ReRambo
Officer Michael Wolf #399
A few of these photos appear not to meet community standards.
Great news for our township!

@TLS please note that years back Lakewood had a frum police officer, I believe his name was Officer Shaw. Look it up.
