Zion Diaz, of Hammonton, told others to block intersections, perform "burnouts" and block police vehicles from responding to emergency calls the night of Sept. 24, Cape May County Prosecutor Jeffrey H. Sutherland said.
Diaz was arrested without incident and was charged with riot, a crime of the 4th degree. Diaz was processed and released on a summons pending Court proceedings.
Meanwhile, authorities were looking to identify the man pictured above, along with a black Honda Accord and its driver. The male in the dark hooded sweatshirt was involved in an aggravated assault on a police officer and the Honda Accord was involved in the motor vehicle crash with a golf cart.
The Honda Accord has a distinct aftermarket tail light package and should have significant damage to the front passenger side quarter panel.
