Police: Vehicle That Worried Manchester Parents Located; Driver Interviewed

The dark blue Chevrolet Trail Blazer that had Manchester Township parents concerned does not appear to pose a child safety threat, Manchester Township Police Chief Lisa Parker said Tuesday evening.

The SUV, which had been reported by parents as seen in the area of school bus stops in the Pine Lake Park section was located, Parker said, and the driver was interviewed by township detectives, among several interviews they conducted.

“The investigation is still ongoing, however, it doesn’t appear to be a child safety issue for the residents of Manchester Township,” Parker said.

Toms River Township police and a concerned citizen assisted Manchester police, she said.

“As always, the Manchester Township Police remind residents to report all suspicious vehicles, people and activity to 732-657-6111, or 911 for emergencies. You can also leave anonymous tip information on our webpage, http://www.manchesterpolicenj.com/”
