The gradual end of paying cash to cross the Delaware River to Pennsylvania from Central and North Jersey is starting Wednesday when drivers will be offered a third option to “pay by license plate” in addition to cash and E-Zpass at six Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission bridges.
The three ways to pay will eventually give way to two all-electronic methods, E-ZPass and toll-by-plate as the commission marches toward a cashless future that was announced last month.
Starting on Wednesday, drivers using the commission’s bridges between Trenton-Morrisville (Route 1); I-78; Easton-Phillipsburg (Route 202); Portland-Columbia (Routes 611, 46, and 94); the Delaware Water Gap (I-80); and Milford-Montague (Route 206) will have three ways to pay their toll, cash, toll by plate or E-ZPass.

Here’s how restaurant inspections work
Restaurants in Delaware are inspected about every six months, according to the Office of Food Protection. Here’s what inspectors look for.
Jenna Miller, Jenna Miller
Is your favorite Sussex County restaurant or food establishment among the places with the most health and food safety guideline violations in the past 30 days as of June 29?
See the chart below to find out. At the top of the chart is Aunt Mary’s Kitches in Milford, which had 25 violations on June 14.
Or see how well food establishments in all three Delaware counties are complying with regulations by searching Delaware Online/The News Journal’s restaurant inspection database.
Restaurants, food trucks, church kitchens, grocery stores, delis, concession stands, ice cream parlors, pizzerias, schools, hospitals, bakeries, fitness centers, hotels, and golf clubs are among the more than 3,500 permitted Delaware food establishments that prepare and serve food to the public and are included in the database.
The database is updated using information from the Delaware Department of Health and Social Services. Most places are inspected twice per year, using the State of Delaware Food Code, a science-based regulation similar to the national model from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
The database is meant to be a tool for consumers to be informed, however, it is only one measurement of a food establishment’s operations and does not provide a full picture of any business’s overall standards or offerings.
If you have questions regarding a food inspection report, whether currently reported or for a prior reporting period, please contact the Office of Food Protection at 302-744-4546.

Reading man arrested for shooting in Delaware
![Reading man arrested for shooting in Delaware](https://www.readingeagle.com/wp-content/uploads/migration/2021/05/3458a57d8cb285c1091d9d9bc628d66d-e1711384418674.jpg?w=1024&h=524)
A Reading man was arrested last week for a shooting earlier this month at a Red Roof Inn & Suites in New Castle, Delaware.
Erickson Acuapa, 21, of Reading, was arrested in Wyomissing for the shooting that took place June 16, Delaware state police said.
Acuapa was arrested by Wyomissing police and later extradited to Delaware and taken into custody by Delaware state police.
He was charged with assault, possession of a firearm while committing a felony, and reckless endangerment.
According to a press release:
At 3:33 a.m. troopers responded to reports of the shooting at 1612 N. Dupont Highway.
When troopers arrived on the scene, they learned that a 20-year-old male victim had been taken to a local hospital for a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to the arm.
A preliminary investigation revealed that several people gathered at the motel after attending a local concert.
During this gathering, the victim and unknown suspect engaged in an argument. The altercation escalated, and the suspect fired a shot at the victim before fleeing the scene.
An investigation by detectives identified the suspect as Erickson Acuapa.
On June 19, Acuapa was located in Wyomissing and taken into custody by the Wyomissing Police Department.
Following his extradition to Delaware, Acuapa was arraigned by Justice of the Peace Court 2, and committed to Howard R. Young Correctional Institution on a $138,000 cash bond.
