Police in Longport are reporting a high-end vehicle theft that occurred early Tuesday morning. There was a rash of such thefts along the South Jersey Shore last summer, and it appears the bad guys may have picked up right where they left off.
Police in Longport say they've arrested a man responsible for a package delivery theft from a local residence. Jose A Almonte-Sanchez, 32, of Wilmington, Delaware was charged with theft and receiving stolen property.
Police determined that Francis Beck, 82, had fired two rounds from a CO2-powered handgun nearby in the area of South Coolidge Avenue, just across the Longport/Margate border.
