Pair Assaulted in Wooded Area, Car Stolen

By Herald Staff

COURT HOUSE — An assault and motor vehicle theft took place early Sunday morning in a wooded area off Goshen Road.
According to Middle Township police, a call was received at 7:08 a.m. of an assault and vehicle theft that took place earlier in the morning, some time between 3:30 and 4 a.m.
Two males, aged 18 and 19 from Pennsylvania, who were vacationing in Sea Isle City, stopped at a Court House fast food restaurant. There they met three males, who advised them they would take them to a local party.
The victims followed them in their vehicle, after driving around a while; they were directed to a dirt road behind a neighborhood off Goshen Road.
There, they left their vehicles and started to walk into the woods to the alleged party location.
At that time, the three males, two blacks and a Hispanic in their late teens or early 20s, then began to physically assault the victims.
The pair escaped their attackers, but eventually got lost in the wooded area.
When they made it back to the location where they parked their car, they found it missing, and presumed stolen.
That vehicle was described as a 2001 Chevrolet Malibu with Pennsylvania license tags FXD-7271.
The suspects were reportedly driving a dark colored vehicle, either red or maroon.
Patrolman Jennifer Moore and Detective Richard McHale investigated the case. Anyone seeing the stolen vehicle is asked to notify police at (609) 465-8700.
