Police: Man Steals 3 Luxury Vehicles From Same New Jersey Home

A 22-year-old man, Alshalik J. Sweat was arrested for allegedly stealing three luxury automobiles from the same home.

He was promptly released from prison within 24 hours of being jailed.

Sweat’s rapid release from prison is a direct byproduct of the 2017 New Jersey bail reform legislation.

The Cliffside Park, New Jersey police recovered a fingerprint from a luxury automobile, which led them to Sweat, who they allege has stolen three luxury vehicles … all from the same home.

It was a very trusting home, as the doors to all three cars were left open; the keys to each were left inside the vehicle and the garage door was also left open (police have confirmed).

Here are the make and model of the three luxury cars:

Lamborghini Huracan.
Mercedes G-Wagon.
BMW X7

Cliffside Park Deputy Police Chief, Vincent Capano has confirmed that all three vehicles have been recovered.
