June Police Report Confirms Major Increase In Weapons Violations; 111 Arrests Up 178% Over June 2019

OCEAN CITY – A report on police activity for the month of June highlighted a notable increase in custodial and weapons arrests in Ocean City.

On Monday, Ocean City Police Department (OCPD) Chief Ross Buzzuro presented the Ocean City Police Commission with a report on police activity in June.

Throughout last month, the department reported 6,144 officer calls for service and 3,141 citizen calls for service. Buzzuro said calls for service in both categories represented a decrease from June 2019, the most recent pre-pandemic records.

In the top 25 calls for service, city ordinance violations decreased from 2,947 in 2019 and 1,757 in 2020 to 1,685 in 2021. The agency also reported decreases in traffic stops, citizen assists, thefts that have already occurred and public safety concerns, to name a few.

“Most things are in line with where we were two years ago,” he told commission members this week.

  1. Trumpers rides are to be torn down
    for Section 8 housing

    Camel Harris said “ENOUGH WITH RICH PEOPLES IN O.C.”

  2. The real test on rather OC prosecutors want to send a message on crime will be just how many of the felons in possession of a firearm get hit with the federal charge of that crime.
    Yellow livered, spineless Prosecutors at the state level are too afraid to send those felons to federal court.
    If they did the Felon gets anywhere from 8 to 12 years mandatory.
    Just watch how they drop the gun charges down to almost nothing in plea agreements because the local prosecutors are afraid.
