A Weehawken police officer won’t face any charges after shooting a suspect who hit another cop with a stolen vehicle, a Hudson County grand jury decided.
Weehawken Police Sgt. Vincent Avoletta’s use of force was investigated by the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office (HCPO) and supervised by the New Jersey Attorney General’s Office of Public Integrity and Accountability, the HCPO announced.
The investigation was presented to Hudson County residents serving on a county grand jury, in accordance with the New Jersey Attorney General’s Office’s 2019 Independent Prosecutor Directive (the “Directive”).
