The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is issuing a public health alert for headcheese that may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes (Lm). A recall was not requested because the products are no longer available for purchase. Headcheese is a ready-to-eat (RTE), pork deli meat product typically made from meat and seasonings that are cooked together and formed into a loaf or jelly-style product.
On Friday, May 8, 2026, at approximately 7:58 p.m., officers from the Gloucester Township Police Department (GTPD) were dispatched to the area of Pine Glen Drive in the Sicklerville section of Gloucester Township for the report of three juveniles burglarizing a residence and attempting to steal a vehicle.
An alert neighbor observed three subjects wearing ski masks enter a residence, immediately contacted police, and continued providing real-time information to responding officers. The three males exited the residence carrying numerous items and proceeded to a vehicle in an attempt to steal it and flee the area. The subjects entered the vehicle but were unsuccessful in starting it, causing them to flee on foot.
Responding officers located the suspects fleeing, pursued them on foot, and successfully took all three individuals into custody. The suspects were identified as juveniles, transported to GTPD Headquarters, charged on juvenile complaints, and remanded to a juvenile detention center.

That pattern has a name now: doomscrolling. It describes the compulsive habit of consuming negative news or distressing social content for long stretches, even when it leaves you feeling worse.
