Three people were charged after pelting Lakewood residents with eggs in a drive-by assault last night, TLS has learned.

At around 10:45 PM, the suspects drove around the area of Forest Avenue, throwing eggs at residents. At least two pedestrians were struck by the eggs, police told TLS.

LCSW was called and managed to locate the vehicle, following it until police arrived. Police caught up with the vehicle and stopped it at the intersection of Ocean Avenue and New Hampshire Avenue.

Two adults and one juvenile were taken into custody and charged with Simple Assault and Criminal Mischief, police said.

The incidents are being investigated by Lakewood’s Detective Bureau.

wrong this stuff happened long before Trump got elected. In fact it started 1/20/09 when Obama declared whites (all white regardless of religion) Racist Bigots.

This has nothing to do with Trump! Why is everything so politically race based. If the other one would have gotten in it would still be happening

עשו שונה את יעקב. What dont people understand? Let us learn from history and begin to act like we are in galus if we want to be brought out of it. We are not spectators but players.

This was happening even before Obama took office. South Jersey racism and anti-semitism is well know documented. Look up the history of KKK skin heads in South jersey, particularly TR. In fact New Jersey is number 4 on the list of top ten states with such hate groups.

This has nothing to do with Trump, Obama, Bush Jr., Clinton, Bush Sr., Reagan etc. There are hateful people in this world that will try to harm people because of their hate.

Adults can mean kids that are 18 years old.

The rapid rise of anti semetic attacks across the country can all be blamed on president trump’s hateful rhetoric and his followers. While trump reluctantly denounced anti semetism recently, there is still a well known anti Semite working in the White House, Steve bannon.

And #12, you sound exactly like a professor. You can go back to your demonstration now, if anything isn’t burnt down. Your micro-aggression is making me cry, I need to go to the safe space, but first the gender-free bathroom to throw-up.

The professor is more than a little cracked. In fact. It’s more like a scrambled egghead. In any case, if a little brass, copper and lead sandwich were on the menu the egg pelters might think twice.

Did I just trigger you professor-in chief? It sounds like you are the one whom needs a safe space while trying to defend your king trump. Look, you can all continue burying your heads in the sand and pretend this is just the norm while several Jewish cemeteries have been desecrated and Jewish community centers and synagogues are receiving bomb threats daily since trump has been elected.

Trump fueled the people with hate, this is happening nation wide. If you dont think so then your part of the reason of why there has been alot of hate crimes.
