From Maplewood Police:
On July 5th at approximately 10 PM, officers
responded to the area of Valley St and Crowell
Pl on a report of a fight.
Upon officers arrival, a large group was observed
to be involved.
Officers attempted to disperse the crowd of disorderly individuals
and were met with resistance and individuals refusing to leave the
area.
South Orange and Irvington Police Departments and several other
agencies were called to assist in dispersing the crowd and
monitoring their behavior.
Several officers on foot as well as in police vehicles escorted the
group through several streets in an attempt to minimize and
prevent further incidents from occurring.
During the course of this several juveniles were taken into custody.
The four juveniles that were arrested were charged with a variety
of charges based upon their actions that included disorderly
conduct, obstruction of the administration of law, resisting arrest,
and aggravated assault on a police officer.
The arrestees were three males from South Orange, two were
15 years old and one was 16 year old, one male from Maplewood
age 16. The crowd eventually dispersed in the area of Elmwood
Ave near the Irvington line.
