On April 24, 2026, Sergeant Brian Hambrecht was flagged down near North Carolina and Baltic Avenues regarding a male inside 704 N. Maryland Avenue reportedly armed with a knife. As he investigated, Sgt. Hambrecht advised responding units that the suspect was holding a female at knife-point inside the residence.

Officers Andres Ayala-Cabrera and Azale Carter-Reynolds arrived on scene and heard a female pleading for help from within. They immediately unholstered their service weapons and entered the home. Inside the kitchen, they located the suspect holding the victim against her will with a knife. Upon seeing officers and hearing commands, the suspect dropped the weapon and released the victim unharmed.

Officers Ayala and Carter quickly took the suspect into custody without further incident actions that very likely saved a life.
For their outstanding actions, both officers have been awarded the 803 Award and were recommended for commendations. Their composure, teamwork, and decisive response reflect the highest standards of our department.

Atlantic City Officials will be hosting a public Town Hall at tomorrow’s May 6th CitiStat meeting to discuss New Jersey’s new e-bike law and what it means for our community. The meeting will be held in City Council Chambers on the 2nd Floor at 5 PM at City Hall. It will also be live-streamed on the City's Website and the City's page.

This law brings major changes, including new licensing, registration, and insurance requirements for many e-bike riders. In a city like Atlantic City, where e-bikes are widely used by workers, residents, and visitors, these changes have real impacts on how people get to work and move around the city.

The Atlantic City Police Department will walk through:
• What the law requires
• Who it affects
• How enforcement will work
• What riders need to do to stay compliant

Our approach will focus on education first, with a grace period to help riders understand the law before enforcement increases.

Residents, workers, and business owners are encouraged to attend, ask questions, and get clear information directly from Public Safety leadership.
