Schools in Barnegat opened on Thursday as the manhunt for an escapee from a South Jersey prison continues. Barnegat Police said they would have an officer present in each of the district’s six schools, as more than 100 members of law enforcement continued the search for Arthur Buckel. Buckel, an escapee from the Bayside State Prison’s Ancora unit in Hammonton, was missing from a head count of inmates on Tuesday. He was less than three weeks from being eligible for parole, according to the New Jersey Department of Corrections. The search continued all night for Buckel, who was was spotted in a stolen 2015 Chevrolet Silverado SUV in the parking lot of the CVS on West Bay Avenue Wednesday morning. That triggered a “shelter in place” in Barnegat schools, which were then dismissed in shifts on Wednesday afternoon. Barnegat Police Sgt. Jeffrey Ryan said patrols and K9 teams fanned out along the Garden State Parkway and other likely escape routes in the vicinity, their capabilities challenged by ongoing rain. Read More. |
