🚨 Help Us Identify This Vehicle 🚨

The Rivertom Police Department is asking for the public’s assistance in identifying the driver of a vehicle that failed to yield to a crossing guard last week.

The incident occurred in the area of Broad and Main Street. Thankfully, no injuries were reported, but this type of behavior puts our crossing guards, students, and families at serious risk. The vehicle is a white Ford Econoline extended van (year unknown). The vehicle is missing its center hubcap piece on the front driver side wheel. A photo of the vehicle is included below.

If you recognize this vehicle or have any information related to this incident, please contact the Riverton Police Department at 856-829-1211 or send us a direct message.

⚠️ Please remember to slow down and use extra caution in school zones. Crossing guards are there to help keep our children safe, and drivers are required by law to obey their signals.

Thank you for your assistance in helping keep our community safe.

🚔 Last Thursday, Riverton Police conducted a motor vehicle stop after police responded to the CVS for a fraud complaint. A male age 25 from Florida, a male age 21 from Georgia, and a female age 21 from Camden, NJ were subsequently stopped and are facing multiple serious charges.

During the course of the investigation and search warrant, officers discovered evidence of forgery, check fraud, possession of counterfeit currency, possession of handguns as well as possession of hollow point ammunition & high-capacity magazines. One of the handguns was a stolen firearm from out-of-state.

Both fi****ms were removed from our community and those possessing them are convicted felons which carries additionally penalties.

This arrest highlights the importance of proactive policing and vigilant officers who remain committed to keeping illegal fi****ms and fraudulent activity out of the community. A routine traffic stop can often uncover much more — and in this case, it prevented potentially dangerous weapons and fraud from impacting our community.

All suspects were charged accordingly & lodged in the Burlington County Jail.

Tonight Cpl Reeder and Officer Williams were on patrol with officers and fare enforcement from the New Jersey Transit Police to proactively address quality of life issues. During the detail Riverton Police located a wanted person that we charged from an unrelated investigation. Great collaboration and teamwork from both agencies.
