Yesterday, we had the honor of attending the 200 Club of Mercer County Luncheon, where our very own Officers Blake DeMeter, Michael Enriquez and Pennington Borough Officer Mark Caruso were recognized with the Valor Award for their outstanding actions in handling an incident in Hopewell Township in 2025.

Their professionalism, courage, and dedication to serving our community exemplify the very best of law enforcement, and we are incredibly proud of their well-deserved recognition.

Several residents have recently received scam calls from individuals claiming to be officers from the Mercer County Sherriff’s Office, stating there is a warrant for missing jury duty and demanding large sums of money to avoid arrest.
Please remember:
• Law enforcement agencies will NEVER request payment through Bitcoin, Venmo, CashApp, gift cards, or similar apps.
• New Jersey does NOT have monetary bail on criminal warrants.
If you receive one of these calls from Mercer County Sheriff’s Office or any other law enforcement agency, contact the agency directly using an official phone number to verify the information. Do not send money or provide personal information.
