Berkeley Expands Ring Surveillance Subsidies Amid Car Thefts

Berkeley Township has expanded the availability of the Ring subsidy program, offering more residents a $100 discount on the video-surveillance technology. Bayville residents can apply here.

If discounts are still available, Ring will send you a coupon to order online. Each household can only get one, but residents can get $30 off two items and 20 percent off accessories, officials said.

The township and police provided Ring surveillance equipment to residents Saturday at Berkeley Town Hall. Berkeley residents have experienced a string of thefts from their vehicles in recent months.

Police confirmed that one incident caught on video is under investigation. Two people approached a car in Berkeley last week and punched through the window before stealing belongings, according to police. Watch the video here.
