Police in Westampton, New Jersey investigate teen chaos after rec center gathering:
A South Jersey neighborhood was thrown into chaos Friday night after a large group of teens poured out of a party at the Westampton Recreation Center and into the nearby Spring Meadows development, disturbing residents and damaging property.
Tatiana Iglesia had just put her newborn to bed when her partner, Eric Rodriguez, ran in, alarmed by the noise outside.
“He’s like, ‘call the cops — call the cops! They’re on top of the cars — they’re destroying them…they’re fighting,’” Iglesia recalled Rodriguez saying. “They were just on top of the cars — it was a riot outside.”
That chaos was captured on a video the couple shared from their Ring security camera. The footage showed dozens of teens running through the streets and jumping on cars. At one point, what sounded like a taser could be heard in the background.
“When I look out the window, I just see hundreds of kids everywhere…on my lawn, in my driveway, in my neighbor’s driveway…in the middle of the street,” Iglesia said.
Police helped disperse the crowd, but Iglesia and Rodriguez soon realized both of their vehicles were damaged. The roofs and hoods were all dented in. The mirrors and lights were also damaged, and footprints were visible the next day.
Westampton Township police said they responded to the neighborhood and are now investigating the incident, which they say appears to have started at the recreation center.
Fourteen-year-old Mikaela Barclay said she was at the party, which drew students from at least four different area high schools. She said the evening started off without issue — there was music and dancing — but things escalated once the party ended and the crowd left the building.
“That’s when it went all sorts of crazy,” Barclay said. “There were kids trying to fight in the middle of the road…jumping on cars.”
Barclay, who lives in the neighborhood, said most of the teens involved didn’t live nearby and showed little regard for the people who did.
“They were so disrespectful,” she said.
Other South Jersey towns that have experienced similar incidents are now taking measures to ensure it doesn’t happen again.
The incident unfolded the same weekend Gloucester Township Day was postponed due to what officials described as “credible threats of violence and unlawful activity.” Last year, ten teens were arrested during the event following reports of large groups causing disturbances.
In another preventative move, Wildwood officials recently announced they would strictly enforce a 10 p.m. curfew for minors ahead of the busy summer season, warning that any violations would result in arrests — not only of the teens but also their guardians.
In Westampton Township, police say they’re now reviewing how the situation unfolded and are working to ensure similar disruptions don’t happen again. CBS News Philadelphia has reached out to the mayor and the recreation department to learn what additional measures may be put in place.
Iglesia said she wants accountability.
“We came here after we started having our kids, trying to have a better life,” she said. “We worked really hard to get our cars, and for kids just to come out and do things without repercussions is so, so frustrating.”

Husband dies after killing wife, shooting self at NJ nursing home, police say
A man has died of self-inflicted injures, officials said, a day after he shot and killed his estranged wife at a New Jersey nursing home on Monday.
According to police, on Tuesday morning, Brandon Alexander, 35, of Minotola, New Jersey, succumbed to self-inflicted injuries at a New Jersey hospital after he shot and killed his wife, Victoria, 38, also of Minotola, NJ, at Excelcare Rehabilitation Facility in Egg Harbor Township.
If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline by calling 1-800-799-SAFE (7233), visiting www.thehotline.org or texting LOVEIS to 22522.
That shooting, officials said, happened at about 6 a.m. at the nursing home, located along the 6800 block of Delilah Road in Egg Harbor Township.
Follow up investigation determined that the shooting happened after Alexander waited in the parking lot of the nursing home for his estranged wife to show up at work, where she was employed as a nurse, on Monday morning, officials said.
Once she arrived, officials said, Alexander maneuvered his vehicle to block in her car and he then entered her vehicle, before leaving a pair of suicide notes on the dashboard.
If you or someone you know is in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline or chat live at 988lifeline.org. You can also visit SpeakingOfSuicide.com/resources for additional support.
However, as this happened, a food truck driver pulled up and asked Alexander to move his vehicle, police said.
At that time, police said, Alexander exited his wife’s car and followed her into the nursing home building where he shot her several times before turning the gun on himself.
Victoria Alexander was pronounced at the scene and, officials said, her estranged husband was taken to a nearby hospital where he succumbed to self-inflicted injuries on Tuesday morning.
An investigation into this incident, officials said, remains ongoing.
