A wild crime spree in New Jersey started when a hospital patient took off in a medical van right after getting released, then crashed on the highway before stealing another car, leading police to open fire on him
The shots from officers came on Route 35 in Holmdel after the wild series of events that began at Bayshore Hospital. Law enforcement sources said a man, described as a crisis patient, had just been released on Wednesday and stole the work van out of the parking lot. The stolen van had been left running.
The man, later identified by prosecutors as 33-year-old Justin Chacon, drove the van away, but crashed it on top of a jersey barrier a few miles away, near the Middletown and Red Bank border. A good Samaritan tried to help him, but the former patient then stole that man's car. Chacon ended up a few miles away in Holmdel.
"I was just riding my bike and I heard a loud noise. I seen a lot of traffic with cars. I heard a pop. I didn’t know what that was," said Bonnie Huvner-Mallon, who heard the commotion nearby.
