Good afternoon,
Please be advised that pursuant to N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1.1, the CAD report has been redacted to protect the disclosure of personal identifying information, including driver license numbers, street addresses, unlisted phone numbers, persons not involved, and month and date of birth. See also Serrano v. South Brunswick Twp., 358 N.J. Super. 352, 368-69 (App. Div. 2003). Please be further advised that the Borough is in possession of an Incident report corresponding to the CAD report, however, please be advised that the Incident Report is an exempt criminal investigatory record. Specifically, incident reports are protected from disclosure pursuant to N. Jersey Media Grp., Inc. v. Twp. of Lyndhurst, 229 N.J. 541 (2017) (the CIR exception applies when the incident pertains to an investigation into “actual or potential violations of criminal law”. Id. at 569 and Paff v. Ocean Cty. Prosecutor’s Office, 235 N.J. 1 (2018). Moreover, in Janeczko v. NJ Department of Law & Public Safety, Division of Criminal Justice, GRC Complaint No. 2002-79 and 2002-80 (affirmed on appeal in May 2004), the Council held that the exemption does not permit access to the records after the investigation is closed.
