Cherry Hill Police Department Open Records Request
Dear Cherry Hill 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:
Incident reports including officer narrative that have been coded as a fight /dispute from 11/08/2024 to 11/22/2024.
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,
Ciaran Johnson

Dear Cherry Hill Township,
Thank you for your message. I am referring to Incident/arrest reports where a "Fight/dispute" occurred. If there are no available records, I would like to change it to Incident/arrest report related to DUI/DWI instead with the same time frame. I hope this helps.
Yours faithfully,
Ciaran Johnson
