Manahawkin man intentionally drove into two cars, say police

A Manahawkin man faces a raft of charges for allegedly leaving a Stafford Township party in a drunken rage, ramming his truck into a pair of cars outside the house, and driving away.

Police charged Chance Bruemmer, 19, with driving under the influence, criminal mischief, leaving the scene of an accident, and reckless driving.

Officers were sent to the Bernard Drive house in the Village Harbor section at about 4:05 AM Sunday. They ascertained that Bruemmer had been involved in an argument at the party, police said.

They found Bruemmer's 1999 Dodge Ram on Lawrence Drive and apprehended him at his home there.

He is scheduled for a hearing in Stafford Municipal Court on January 8.
