MANCHESTER -- A shooting in the township's Summit Park section last week led to the arrest of a Lindenwold man on several weapons-related charges, police said.

No one was injured in the Oct. 15 shooting, however, two vehicles were sprayed with bullets and multiple shell casings scattered the street, Capt. Todd Malland said.

One of the vehicles struck was a 2006 Mercedes-Benz K50 belonging to Todd D. Greene, 44, of Lindenwold, police said.

Police obtained a warrant to search the vehicle and inside the trunk found a .22-caliber Ruger and a 9mm Ruger, police said. The .22-caliber had been reported stolen from Georgia.

Greene was charged with unlawful possession of a weapon, certain persons not to have weapons, possession of prohibited weapons and devices (hollow-point bullets) and purchase of firearms without proper documentation.

On Oct. 15 at around 9 p.m., police had responded to Summit Park after several residents reported hearing multiple bursts of gunshots in the area of Nathan Avenue and Neal Place. Those residents also reported seeing a vehicle fleeing the area, according to Malland.

The area was closed off for several hours as police searched for a possible suspect or suspects. Multiple shell casings were recovered, Malland said.

Police have not yet charged anyone with committing the shooting. However, the incident remains under investigation and additional charges are anticipated, police said. 

Green was located on Sunday in Freehold and transported back to Manchester. He was taken to the Ocean County jail in lieu of $150,000 with no 10-percent option. 

Police asked anyone with information about the shooting or who may have witnessed the incident to contact Detective Robert Maccaquano at 732-657-2009 Ext. 4202. Anonymous tips can be left on the Manchester Township Police website tip-line.
