She and her cousin were walking back from the local Wawa on Saturday, October 24 when they heard a man yelling for help. Minutes later, the 16-year-old was kneeling over a three-week-old baby who had stopped breathing. The tiny infant lay on the father’s shirt and another woman’s sweatshirt, spread out on the ground.

Seaside Heights Settles Suit Over Swinging Boardwalk Lights

Seaside Heights has settled a lawsuit over swinging boardwalk light fixtures, bringing a legal dispute involving the borough's boardwalk lighting to a close. The project traces back to a contract the borough awarded to replace its boardwalk lights, a job that officials said was fully covered by a $4,795,362 state boardwalk preservation grant, according to earlier reporting from Shorebeat. The planned work called for replacing the existing lights with stainless-steel fixtures and LEDs. The old-style lighting required more frequent bulb changes and drew more energy, the outlet had reported.

Toms River mayor: If council wants to livestream meetings, do it yourself

TOMS RIVER -- In the ongoing battle over livestreaming raucous Township Council meetings in full, the mayor is telling a judge that if the council wants to air them, they should get their own staff to do it. The assistant township attorney, who reports to Mayor Daniel Rodrick, asked an Ocean County Superior Court judge to require Township Council staff to livestream meetings, not township administrative staff. "The Council, as the court noted in its opinion … does maintain a small staff of its own employees, which it controls," Assistant Township Attorney Jonathan M. Penney wrote in a memorandum to Superior Court Judge Francis H. Hodgson Jr. "Why would that staff not be directed to record and implement the Council Meeting rules? "In today’s world, this technology is available to all and easy to operate," Penney's argument continued. "That is who should be recording the meetings: the clerk or deputy clerk. The Faulkner Act does not permit for the suspension of statutory powers while the Council is in session — the township administrative staff does not suddenly become subject to the will of the Council for the duration of time Council Meetings are taking place."
