As the winter of our discontent starts to thaw and come to close, it also marks a turn in highway operations for the men and women of the Camden County Department of Public Works – pothole patrol. Moving forward, as asphalt plants resume their operations, the Department of Public Works is launching an all-out effort to ensure multi-modal transportation over the course of 1,200 lane miles of road. Several crews are hitting the streets to repair the breakdown of the roads created by the unprecedented winter conditions seen throughout the past three months.
“We have dispatched several crews a day throughout the highways and byways of Camden County to address not only potholes, but other roadway concerns countywide,” said Commissioner Al Dyer, liaison to the Department of Public Works. “Our residents are our best eyes on our roadways, and we need everyone to engage in this effort to make Camden County a better place to live, work and drive. As a reminder, please slow down and be patient when you see our crews working on our roadways.”

On February 26, 2026 at approximately 12:52pm, Gloucester Township Police Officers were dispatched to Fulton Bank located at 1400 Blackwood Clementon Road on report of a fraud in progress.
Upon arrival bank employees alerted officers to a male attempting to execute a suspicious transaction. The male was detained and was in possession of a fraudulent driver’s license. The investigation revealed the male was impersonating a bank customer, and was attempting to complete a wire transfer in the amount of $87,500 out of the victim’s account. The male was positively identified by officers as David L. Hutton from Houston, TX. The victim’s account did not suffer any monetary loss due to the quick actions by bank employees and officers.
Hutton was placed under arrest and transported to Gloucester Township Police Headquarters for processing. He was charged on a criminal warrant and remanded to Camden County Correctional Facility.
Arrested: David L. Hutton, Age 64, Houston, TX was charged with Exhibiting False Documents (3rd Degree), Forgery (3rd Degree), Assuming False Identity (2nd Degree), Attempted Theft by Deception (2nd Degree).
This incident represents the importance of a strong partnership between the police and community, highlighting the role the residents play in keeping the community safe. Prompt reporting of suspicious activity and potential criminal conduct allows officers to respond quickly and effectively to address community concerns. The teamwork between Officers, Detectives, and community members directly contributed to this arrest.
The Gloucester Township Police reminds all residents that identity theft can happen quickly and without immediate signs. To protect yourself residents can regularly monitor bank and credit statements, never share personal or financial information with unknown individuals, shred sensitive documents, and be cautious of unsolicited calls, emails, or text messages requesting personal information.

As my descendants will proudly tell you, I can be a bit slow on the uptake. But now I found the “I Can’t Do Any of This” channel on cable television, and it opened my eyes.
It’s like shopping in an army surplus store. Lots of fun just cruising around, trying to figure out what this little thing does. A lesson in belittlement?
Faugh! I say.
No, for the up-to-date old cowboy and columnist, it’s simply a challenge. I always try to figure out what the little gizmo does before throwing myself on the mercy of that young girl at the cash register.
It’s much the same with the “No Can Do” channel. I’ll turn it on in the morning while ingesting coffee, and they’ll tell me, “Don’t throw away that old fan until you’ve filled it with cement.”
