The Pine Hill Police Department will be participating in the 20th DEA Operation Take Back New Jersey on Saturday, April 24, 2021 from 10:00am until 2:00pm and will follow all current COVID-19 guidelines and regulations to ensure a safe, secure drop-off The event will be held at the Police Administration Building located at 48 West Sixth Avenue. The Department will be providing a safe and legal method for the residents of Pine Hill and surrounding jurisdictions to dispose of unused, unwanted or expired medication. Information will also be available for the PHPD – VOADV IMPACT Initiative. ![]()
![]()
Since May 2014, the Pine Hill Police Department has responded to over 250 reported drug overdoses. Police Officers and EMS have deployed lifesaving naloxone in over 150 of those incidents. ![]()
![]()
At its last Take Back Day in October 2020, DEA collected a record-high amount of expired, unwanted, and unused prescription medications, with the public turning in close to 500 tons of unwanted drugs. Over the 10-year span of Take Back Day, DEA has brought in more than 6,800 tons of prescription drugs. ![]()
![]()
With studies indicating a majority of abused prescription drugs come from family and friends, including from home medicine cabinets, clearing out unused medicine is essential. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the U.S. has seen an increase in overdose deaths during the COVID-19 pandemic, with 83,544 Americans overdosing during the 12-month period ending July 1, 2020, the most ever recorded in a 12-month period. The increase in drug overdose deaths appeared to begin prior to the COVID-19 health emergency, but accelerated significantly during the first months of the pandemic. ![]()
![]()
This initiative addresses a vital public safety and public health issue. Medicines that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse, and abuse. Rates of prescription drug abuse in the U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s National Survey on Drug Use and Health shows year after year that the majority of misused and abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including someone else’s medication being stolen from the home medicine cabinet. In addition, Americans are now advised that their usual methods for disposing of unused medicines—flushing them down the toilet or throwing them in the trash—both pose potential safety and health hazards. ![]()

Gloucester Township Police Media Release: Interagency Cooperation Results In Arrest Of Driver For Eluding After A Pursuit![]()
![]()
On February 1st 2021, at approximately 1:43 pm, a Gloucester Township Police Officer conducted a motor vehicle stop on an older model red Chevrolet Pickup truck with a dark gray tailgate, after the driver was observed to have committed multiple traffic violations as he traveled along Blackwood-Clementon Road. Due to snow covering the vehicles license plate, it was unable to be read. The driver refused to pull over to the shoulder or any of the parking lots along Blackwood-Clementon Road as he ignored the officers’ emergency lights and siren. He continued into Pine Hill and initially slowed down but still would not pull over to the shoulder area. The driver eventually pulled over to the shoulder but re-entered the roadway after the officer pulled up behind him. Due to road conditions and the safety of other drivers, the pursuit was terminated. A description of the vehicle was broadcast to surrounding agencies to aid in identifying the driver and vehicle. ![]()

With the assistance of the Pine Hill Borough Police Department, the driver and vehicle were identified.
