NJ police chief charged with drunk driving, allegedly fled crash

A New Jersey police chief has been charged with drunk driving after allegedly fleeing a crash, court records show.

Bordentown Township Police Chief Brian Pesce was charged with five traffic offenses for a Friday night crash

As well as drunken driving, charges included reckless and careless driving, failing to report an accident and leaving the scene involving property damage, the report said.

The documents did not detail the damage caused when Pesce allegedly crashed a maroon pickup truck just before 10:30 p.m., the outlet said.

Pesce — who has been chief since 2018 — declined to comment when reached by NJ.com. His lawyer, John Hartmann, confirmed the incident but declined further comment, the outlet said.
