Jerame Reid

A police-involved shooting in Bridgeton, New Jersey claimed a man’s life Friday evening.

The Cumberland County Prosecutor’s Office is investigating a police-involved shooting in the South Jersey town. The shooting took place after a chase, police said.

Federal prosecutors in New Jersey won’t file charges against a police officer who fatally shot a man who defied orders by stepping out of a car during a traffic stop with his hands raised.

A lawyer representing two New Jersey police officers involved in a fatal shooting during a traffic stop has asked a court to keep the officers from making statements in a civil suit.

The protest of a recent fatal police shooting of a South Jersey man turned chaotic after a street was reopened to traffic.

Dozens of people took to the streets of Bridgeton to protest the police-involved shooting death of Jerome Reid. NBC10’s Monique Braxton reports the protests were mostly peaceful, but had some tense moments.

Bridgeton Mayor Albert B. Kelly wrote an open letter to residents regarding the police-involved shooting death of Jerame Reid. You can read the full statement below.
