Chief Zebrowski congratulates Officer Mike Pascone

On Monday, September 12th, Michael Pascone pinned on badge number 156 and with his wife Eniko holding the bible he took the oath as Sayreville’s newest Police Officer. “I think that it is important for police to understand the community in which they work”, said Chief John Zebrowski. “Along with valuable experience, Mike brings with him the benefit of knowing the people he will be called to serve during his career”.

“I fulfilled a life long dream when I became a police officer” Pascone said in the moments before the ceremony. “To be able to serve in the community where I grew up just makes the accomplishment more special”. Pascone was an Officer with Matawan PD for over three years and after a brief period of familiarization has joined the Uniform Division of the Sayreville Police Department. His addition to the roster brings the department strength to 84 sworn Officers. “Like any other municipality we too have learned to do more with less”, said Zebrowski citing last year’s reorganization of his department that lost positions due to retirements. “We hope to continue to replace Officers as they retire and explore expanding our roster to meet the challenges of our growing municipality”.

Thanks to the ongoing efforts of AAA, local cooperating local store owners will be able to display the 2011 School’s Open Drive Safely posters.

The Traffic Safety Bureau will be stepping up their pedestrian safety efforts in the next few weeks. As the old saying goes, we have many children in our community but none to spare. Be aware and ALWAYS yield to pedestrians.

In early September our department will be increasing patrols to detect intoxicated drivers. Funded by a grant from the NJ Division of Highway Traffic Safety the Over the Limit Under Arrest campaign will allow us to staff targeted patrols to detect and arrest intoxicated drivers. Remember, if you have been drinking, don’t get behind the wheel.
