Intoxicated Woman Drives Through Hoboken Park

This happens way more often than it should…

Hoboken Police witnessed a vehicle driving through Columbus Park, in the 9th & Grand entrance and out the 10th & Grand exit, at 2:45 a.m. on Wednesday, April 3.

The public park is normally closed to vehicular traffic… because it’s a public park. Thankfully, no one was injured in the incident.
