Dear Medford Township,

Please accept this electronic request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form or use a particular software platform to submit my request per NJSA 47:1A-6(f), which states that an email from a requestor including all of the information required on the adopted form shall suffice in place of a completed form as a valid government record request.

I HAVE NOT been convicted of any indictable offense under the laws of New Jersey, any other state, or the United States.

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:
I am requesting the BWC footage from the following incident:

At 3:10 p.m., Saturday, May 17, officers responded to a crash on Route 70 and Medford Mount Holly Road, Medford Township police said. Upon arrival, two people, Matthew Schwalbe, a 28-year-old West Berlin resident and Matthew Hesser, a 42-year-old Delanco resident, began behaving unusually and interfering with the operations at the scene, police said.

The duo were dressed in first-responder gear and were operating personal vehicles equipped with emergency lights and sirens, police said.

An investigation determined neither man was qualified as a first responder, nor were they authorized to use emergency lights or sirens on their personal vehicles, police said..

They were charged with impersonating a public servant, along with several motor vehicle violations, police said.

My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by E-mail as attachments. Please confirm you have received this request. If you are not the custodian of records, please forward my request to that person and provide their email address to me for future reference.

Yours faithfully,
