For Immediate Release:  November 19, 2019

On November 18, 2019, a man was arrested after being seen on camera by our Surveillance Center personnel pulling on car door handles.

At 1:22 am, patrol officers responded to beach block of Delancey Place after Surveillance Center personnel observed the Sean Conyers checking car doors in the block.  Surveillance personnel provided a description of Conyers to the responding officers.  Officer Sean McGettigan located Conyers two blocks away on Bartram Avenue.  Conyers was placed in custody for an active arrest warrant. 

While searching Conyers, Officer McGettigan found a wallet, keys, and identification for another man in Conyers’ jacket pocket.  Officer McGettigan was familiar with the man who works at a local business.  The man was located and advised Officer McGettigan that his vehicle had been burglarized earlier in the morning on the beach block of Providence Avenue.  Surveillance Center personnel reviewed camera footage for the block and located Conyers entering the vehicle. 

Residents and visitors are reminded to lock their car doors when exiting and leaving their vehicle.  This will reduce the number of vehicle burglaries as most individuals are checking for the unlocked car to enter.

ARRESTED:  Sean Conyers, a 30-year-old man from Villas, NJ.

CHARGES:  Burglary, theft, and contempt of court.

Conyers was remanded to the Atlantic County Justice Facility.
