A CAD summary is attached, with redactions pursuant to the "criminal

The request for police incident reports is denied pursuant to the

Jersey Media Group, Inc. v. Township of Lyndhurst, 229 N.J. 541, 569

incident "fall within the 'criminal investigatory record exception'");

Div. 2003) (affirming dismissal of portion of complaint regarding
non-disclosure of police and EMT reports, on the ground such documents
