Jenkinson's Boardwalk Reopens After Bomb Threat

Law enforcement authorities will review surveillance tapes from Saturday night in an effort to identify a man who reportedly made bomb threats on Jenkinson's boardwalk, a spokesman for the Ocean County Prosecutor's Office said.

Point Pleasant Beach police received a call at 9:10 p.m., when a women reported that a man said a bomb was slated to go off in the children's amusement part section of the boardwalk, said spokesman Al Della Fave.

The woman asked him to repeat what he had just said and the man repeated the bomb threat, Della Fave said.

Point Pleasant Beach police, the Brick Township police department, the New Jersey State Police and the Ocean County Sheriff's Department responded, along with K-9 officers, he said.

" You cannot be making flippant remarks in this day and age," Della Fave said. "That opens you up to a charge of creating a false alarm."
