A Howell Township resident has been arrested and charged in connection with firing a handgun outside his girlfriend’s home early Sunday morning, Monmouth County Prosecutor Raymond S. Santiago announced on Monday.
The incident was exclusively reported by TLS yesterday.
Pietro Ventricelli, 44, of Howell Township, was arrested and charged with one count of first-degree Attempted Murder, one count of second-degree Possession of a Weapon for an Unlawful Purpose (Firearm) and one count of second-degree Unlawful Possession of a Weapon.
At approximately 12:30 a.m. on Sunday morning January 15, Howell Township Police responded to a call for shots fired from a home on Carrie Drive. The investigation revealed that three juvenile friends of the homeowner’s son were sitting in his vehicle in front of the house awaiting the arrival of a rideshare service.
Upon arrival, the three juveniles got out of the vehicle, inadvertently setting off the vehicle’s alarm system. Ventricelli, the homeowner’s boyfriend, came outside and began firing at the rideshare vehicle, later identified as a Dodge Ram 1500 pickup, striking it three times. The driver was able to leave without any injuries to anyone within the vehicle.
For anyone who may have witnessed the incident, please contact Monmouth County Prosecutor’s Office Detective Brian Migliorisi at 800-533-7443 or Howell Township Police Department Detective Ryan Jackson at 732-938-4575.

This story will be sending a message to the Bachurim, that on the night of Purim, if they go collecting in Howell, they need to be extra careful.
For all those that were upset about LAWFUL guns and permits to carry. This guy was not a LEGAL gun owner.
So I guess the NY Post, the NY Daily News & the NY Times can only write articles and report news about NY. Or the Asbury Park Press can only write articles and report news about Asbury Park.
Just because this is the Lakewood Scoop, it doesn’t mean their reporting of news is only limited to Lakewood 🤦♀️
