The Township of Wall Police Department’s (“Police Department”) Records
Division received your Open Public Records Act (“OPRA”) request dated
August 10, 2024 on August 12, 2024.  As such, the seven (7) business day
deadline to respond to your request is August 21, 2024. The Police
Department is responding to your request within seven (7) business days
after receipt of your request as required by New Jersey law N.J.S.A.
47:1A-5.

For ease of reference, your request seeks the following:

On Friday, August 2 2024, Wall Township Police conducted two arrests:

Detective Tyler Driscoll arrested Jillian K. Descaro of Bayville on Route
33/34

Patrolman Joseph Phillips arrested Margaret E. Mellone of Lakewood on
Atlantic Avenue.

Please provide the body cam footage of the arresting officers.

In compliance with your request, the Police Department conducted a
preliminary search for responsive records.  Due to a lack of available
staff, your request is taking longer than anticipated.  The potentially
responsive records require our thorough review and redaction to ensure
that any confidential, privileged, or otherwise exempt information is not
inadvertently disclosed.   The Police Department is requesting an
extension of time, in accordance with New Jersey law.  See Scheeler v. New
Jersey Department of Educ., GRC Complaint No. 2014-123 (Feb. 2016).  An
extension of twenty (20) business days will be required through the end of
business on September 20, 2024.  Thank you for your professional
courtesies and attention to this matter.

Respectfully,
