I WILL NOT use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.
I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.
Records requested:
The following documents in relation to a motor vehicle collison involving a black (dark colored) Ford Explorer and a bicyclist/pedestrian around the intersection of Crowells Road and Woodbridge Ave on Saturday June 21, 2025, at approximately 23:20:

Dear Highland Park Borough,
The black Ford Explorer's NJ license plate is "EM 3557"
Yours faithfully,
Cornelius
Good Afternoon,
There are no responsive records that match your request because your motor
vehicle crash was self-reported through an SR-1 (walk-in report). If you
completed and submitted the form at that time, you should already have a
copy in your possession.
If you have any questions or need further assistance, please don’t
hesitate to contact us.
Sincerely,
Highland Park Police Records Department
