Authorities are investigating a shooting that occurred in Lakewood last night.
At approximately 9:45 p.m., Lakewood Township Police were summoned to the area of Martin Luther King Boulevard for a report of a victim with a gunshot wound. Officers found a thirty year-old male victim with a gunshot wound to the back.
The victim was transported to Monmouth Medical Center, Southern Campus in Lakewood where he is reported to be in stable condition.
This comes just days after another shooting in the area.
This is an active and ongoing investigation. Anyone with any information regarding this investigation is urged to contact Detective Anthony Carrington of the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office at 732-929-2027 or Detective Michael Cavallo of the Lakewood Township Police Department at 732-363-0200.
May the Almighty send to the victim a quick and speedy recovery please.
Which part of Martin Luther King Area, Forest Park?
So much for Black Lives Matter huh ?
“Black Lives Matter” doesn’t mean “black lives matter”.
Words or terms can be hijacked, overloaded, and completely subverted by political movements (like how the word “gay” used to mean “happy”).
BLM is the name and slogan of a racist Marxist organization, which uses Black people much like the original class-ist Marxists used the “working class” – as pawns in their quest for government power.
People who actually want to make lives better for Black Americans support MORE police funding, more focus on practical education (as opposed to the leftist hijacking of academia), pro-growth economic policies, and merit-based immigration (which adds more entrepreneurs rather than competitors for entry-level jobs).
enough already! clean the area up, go door to door and take the guns there!
More higher-resolution security cameras in high-risk public areas is a part of the solution.
The odds of getting away with such a shooting in the 21st century should be zero!
I have utmost support for the Second Amendment, but people should also understand that it shouldn’t trump property rights. The owners of an apartment complex or a neighborhood association have a Right to ban guns.
