Photos Released Of Tractor-Trailer Crash Into Wendy's, Hotel
Foggy eye-glass lenses supposedly caused a tractor-trailer to plow through a Wendy's into a Holiday Inn in Middletown on Friday morning — two things we know for sure, this isn't how late in drive-thru or hotel check-ins work. The crash happened off 801 South/Eisenhower Boulevard at PA Route 283 in Middletown, Lower Swatara Township around 2:43 a.m. on July 12, the township police and fire department explained in separate releases later that morning.

VIDEO: You might've thought he was a James Bond or "Kingsman" fan after a New Jersey driver was nabbed by Port Authority police for using an electronic gizmo to evade tolls. A New Jersey State Police trooper had notified them after seeing a blackout curtain descend over the rear license plate of a white Dodge Challenger as it passed through the cashless toll gate at the Holland Tunnel earlier this month, Port Authority Spokesperson Lenis Valens said. The muscle car had no front plate, she said. A Port Authority officer spotted the driver -- identified as Mark A. Aponte, 28, of Parlin -- d…

: 'Grandson In Trouble' Ringleader Busted, Passaic County Authorities Say
You’ve probably heard of them, the heartless con artists who call elderly victims pretending to be a grandson or other young relative needing bail money right now. Authorities in Passaic County say they’ve nabbed one – a big one. Raymond Jacquez, 26, led a network of scammers who convinced victims they were a relative who’d been arrested or a lawyer working for that person, Passaic County Prosecutor Camelia M. Valdes said.

Feds: Online NJ 'Romeo' Conned Woman Out Of $300,000
She met him on an Internet word game, then gave him her heart. Before she knew it, he’d taken more than $300,000 of her money. And she didn’t even know who her online Romeo really was. Eseosa Obaseki, 36, of Linden, was trying to dodge justice when FBI agents grabbed him this week at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport, authorities said.

Their online exchanges continued for a couple of months before Obaseki “convinced [her] of his rom…
