Newark Public Safety Director Emanuel Miranda, Sr., requests the public’s help in identifying the male suspect pictured below in connection with a theft from an auto incident on Monday, July 7, 2025.
Two vehicles - one parked on West Runyon Street and the other on Ridgewood Avenue - were ransacked and their rear passenger windows had been shattered between 8 p.m. on July 6, 2025, and 7 a.m. on July 7, 2025.
Police officers responded to the incident and met with the victims, whose personal belongings were missing from their vehicles. They included a canvas bag from one vehicle and a non-working cell phone from the second vehicle. On surveillance video, a bald white male was seen walking toward and away from the cars. He wore a black shirt, blue shorts, and grey sneakers and had a backpack.
Director Miranda urges anyone with information on the individual’s identity to call the Police Division’s 24-hour Crime Stopper tip line at 1-877-NWK-TIPS (1-877-695-8477). All anonymous Crime Stopper tips are kept confidential and could result in a reward.
