Subject: OPRA request - Vehicle Pursuits/Refusal to Stop

CAUTION: This email originated from outside your organization. Exercise
caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from
unknown senders.

To whom it may concern,

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. This request is among a batch of similar requests made. I
request the following records:

- Incident Detail/CAD Reports for instances in which a vehicle pursuit
was initiated by your agency from 1/1/2024 to 8/1/2025

- Incident Detail/CAD Reports for instances in which a vehicle refused
to stop, but a pursuit was NOT initiated from 1/1/2024 to 8/1/2025

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

I will NOT be using these records for any monetary gain or commercial
purpose.

I am NOT seeking these records due to a legal proceeding.

I would like for these records to be delivered 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,

Mr. J. Buford
