Delran Men Charged With Assault at Halloween Party

Two Delran men have been charged with allegedly assaulting several people at a Halloween party in Voorhees, Camden County Prosecutor Mary Eva Colalillo and Voorhees Police Chief Louis Bordi said on Thursday.

Emirullah Sayin, 22, and Mithat Ceylan, 22, each face two counts of second-degree aggravated assault, two counts of third-degree aggravated assault and one count of second-degree conspiracy to commit aggravated assault.

Sayin and Ceylan were among a group of men in their 20s who were asked to leave a party upon their arrival at 10:30 p.m. on Oct. 17.

There were numerous guests in their late teens and early 20s at the party, which was held at a home on the unit block of Horseshoe Drive in Voorhees.

Most of the group left between an hour and an hour and a half later, but but Sayin and Ceylan stayed behind and allegedly began punching partygoers without provocation.

A 17-year-old male from Gibbsboro, a 19-year-old Berlin man, a 20-year-old Voorhees man and a 20-year-old Voorhees woman were all taken to an area hospital for treatment.

Witness accounts and social media posts led detectives from the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office Major Crimes Unit and Voorhees Police Department to identify Sayin and Ceylan as suspects.

Ceylan surrendered to authorities at Voorhees Police headquarters on Nov. 6.

Sayin was arrested in Delanco on Thursday.

Bail was set at $100,000 cash for each suspect.
