Head of Millville Police Charged With DUI

Millville’s top cop is on the wrong side of the law after he was arrested for allegedly driving drunk.

Millville Police Lieutenant Edward Zadroga, 47, was arrested and charged with DUI Sunday night. Investigators told NBC10 Zadroga was pulling out of the parking lot of the Sidelines sports bar on Sharp and Main streets in Millville around 10 p.m. when he collided with another car.

No one was injured in the crash. Officials say Zadroga failed a field sobriety test and was arrested around 11:15 p.m. He is charged with driving under the influence and reckless driving.

Zadroga is the spokesman for the Millville Police Department and was appointed the officer in charge following the resignation of their police chief.

Last September two other Millville police officers were also accused of drunk driving after a crash on Camel Road.

Zadroga was also at the center of a whistleblower complaint against the city last year.

Officials have not yet revealed whether Zadroga has been suspended or fired from the department due to the allegations against him.
