Break-In at the County Jail
Most jailbreaks are for the purpose of escape. Not this one.
Not far from the offices of the Badge Company of New Jersey this past Friday, a car was driven through the northwest administrative entrance of the Bergen County Jail, shattering the glass and destroying its metal framework.
But no one was trying to get out, and the driver was not trying to get in. There was no escape attempt and the inmate containment area of the jail was not affected. According to representatives of the Bergen County Sheriff’s Office, the accident was just that, a motor vehicle accident. Still, the incident remained under investigation.
The driver was taken to the hospital for medical attention, but it was reported that nobody inside the building was hurt.
Next time, perhaps the driver should consider the nearby offices of WWOR-TV, less than seven miles away. Breaking into show business is a better option.
