A packed home in Toms River was burglarized over Shabbos, with thieves making off with hundreds of thousands of dollars in illicit proceeds – including a vehicle worth over $250,000, Lakewood Alerts reported Motzei Shabbos.
The thieves broke into the home just before 4 am, rummaged through it for valuables, including car keys, before making off about 20 minutes later.
The culprits were incredibly brazen, as all 8 rooms in the home were filled with people, including a baby room that they went through. The baby inside was thankfully not harmed.

“hundreds of thousands of dollars in illicit proceeds”??
This was a Jewish home? A religious Jewish home?
But the robbers were noticeably dark.
As tragic and scary as this is, I’d like to know what some families own that costs hundreds of thousands of dollars. I understand not everyone is like myself, but we are fortunate to be able to pay tuition and keep the lights on.
With today’s GPS and other built in security, the car shouldn’t be hard to locate. Its the home invasion that’s scary!
A $250,000 vehicle? There may be a bigger problem here.

A vehicle worth over $250,000???!!!!
I guess the “cleaning help” helped clean out the place…
They need to be eliminated!
Was the theft of cash? Jewelry? That’s a lot of cash to have at home. And why was it not in a safe? I wish I could afford to be that sloppy.
If it was all illicit proceeds, then it’s gonev min haganav.
