Chaos erupted in two shore towns over the holiday weekend.
In Ocean City, police are searching for a suspect who stabbed a teenage boy on the boardwalk. The incident occurred Saturday night after 9 p.m. during a fight. The 15-year-old victim is expected to recover. Authorities urge anyone with information to contact the police.
In Seaside Heights, a curfew was implemented for individuals under 18 after crowds caused chaos near a packed boardwalk. Despite false reports of shots fired, police enforced a curfew from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. in Toms River's barrier islands communities to ensure safety.
