HAMMONTON—An “unwanted person” call made at 9:41 p.m. on October 31 on the 200 block of Park Avenue led to an arrest, Hammonton Police Chief Kevin Friel said.


When police investigated the unwanted person, Quanell Still, 32, of Hammonton, he was found to have an active NCIC warrant from the Atlantic County Sheriff’s Department, Friel said.


Still was placed under arrest, transported to police headquarters for processing and was transported to the Atlantic County Jail, Friel said.

In other police news, a motor vehicle crash that occurred on October 30 at 10:47 p.m. at the intersection of 12th Street and Chew Road led to a driving while under the influence (DWI) arrest, Friel said.


The accused subject was Nicole Papadopoulos, 18, of Hammonton, who was found to have failed to yield right-of-way causing an impact in the intersection of 12th Street and Chew Road, Friel said.


“She was found to have been operating the vehicle under the influence,” Friel said.


Friel said Papadopoulos was transported to the AtlantiCare Satellite Emergency Department for treatment and was charged with the following motor vehicle violations: Driving while under the influence, reckless driving, careless driving, failure to possess insurance card, disregard of stop sign, open container of alcoholic beverage in a motor vehicle and failure to maintain lane of travel.
