COURT HOUSE – On May 21, at about 9 a.m., police were dispatched to the Middle Township Elementary No. 1 School for found marijuana. 
According to a release, when Cpl. Castellano and Class 2 Officer Richard McHale arrived, they learned that the accused, Bobby J. Wilson, 30, of Burleigh, had called the school asking to go to the school to retrieve a wallet from his daughter’s backpack. 
Upon arrival at the school, the backpack was checked by school staff where a wallet was not found, but a McDonald’s bag containing less than 50 grams of suspected marijuana was reportedly found. 
Wilson was arrested and charged with possession of marijuana less than 50 grams, endangering the welfare of a child, and an outstanding traffic warrant stemming from another jurisdiction. 
Wilson was incarcerated in the Cape May County Correctional Center pending a bail hearing. The child was unharmed during this incident.
The information in the above was contained in a law enforcement release. The individual named is innocent until proven otherwise in court.
