Howell Man Charged In Connection With Freehold Facility Theft

HOWELL, NJ – A Howell resident has been arrested in conjunction with multiple burglaries at an Upper Freehold storage facility. Christopher Woods, 56, was charged with burglary of a commercial structure and theft of services on July 3.

Earlier this month, Hamilton Station officials began investigating a string of burglaries at the Store and Lock Self Storage facility in Cream Ridge in May.

According to New Jersey State Police, troopers determined that Woods stole approximately $5,000 worth of personal property from the facility on three separate occasions. Officials also found that the Howell resident failed to reimburse the storage facility for services totaling $1500.

Woods was arrested at a Howell residence on Friday. He was charged and released pending a court date.

These charges are merely accusations and the defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
