Don't Drink and Drive, Howell Police Chief Reminds Residents

HOWELL, NJ — Howell Township Police Chief Andrew Kudrick Jr. is reminding residents to be smart tonight as they celebrate New Year's.

"Tonight, I have assigned extra officers strictly to enforce alcohol- and drug-related offenses," he said in a post on Facebook. "This includes roving patrols and plain clothes officers monitoring establishments that serve/sell alcoholic beverages to ensure those are of age to purchase."

"Please be responsible. Don't take the chance. Call someone. Use UBER," Kudrick said.

"You can always call the police department as a LAST resort. We will get you home safely without fear of being charged," he said.
