Atlantic County Sheriff Joseph O’Donoghue wants the people of Atlantic County to know that the Atlantic County Sheriff’s Office is monitoring all developments in the Middle East with the ongoing conflict involving Iran. The Sheriff’s Office is coordinating with state, county, and federal law enforcement partners, maintaining a heightened level of alert. In cooperation with the New Jersey Office of the Attorney General, the Atlantic County Prosecutors’ office and local police agencies, they’ve increased patrols at houses of worship statewide, at this time, focusing on Muslim and Jewish communities, to ensure public safety and awareness.
