State Police Seeking Public’s Assistance in Animal Cruelty Investigation
On January 23, 2025, troopers from Troop “C” Hamilton Station responded to the area of Burlington Path Road and Emleys Hill Road in Upper Freehold Township, Monmouth County, where they discovered three small dogs that appeared malnourished and neglected on the side of the road.
The dogs were immediately evaluated by North Star Vets and have since been placed in the care of Popcorn Park Animal Refuge, where they were cleaned up, cared for and adopted into loving homes.
While these dogs are now safe, we are asking for the public’s assistance in identifying their previous owner(s). If you recognize these dogs or know who may have abandoned them, please contact the New Jersey State Police Troop “C” Hamilton Station Detective Bureau at 609-584-5000 Ext. 5286.
