RUFF NEIGHBORHOOD: Thieves Steal Liberty Humane Society’s Animal Rescue Van

It’s a dog-eat-dog world out there, no doubt. But stealing an animal shelter’s van? Bad… BAD!!!

And yet, it happened—right here in our blissful little corner of the Garden State.

A Liberty Humane Society van was responding to a call Monday night on 48th Street in Bayonne, according to Peter D’Auria of The Jersey Journal. The keys were in it and it was running when it was stolen from the scene. No animals were inside.

The white 2016 Ford Transit Connect van has Liberty Humane Society’s logo on the side. According to The Jersey Journal, “Anyone with information is encouraged to call the Bayonne Police Department’s detective bureau at 201-858-6925 or contact the department’s anonymous tip line at 877-900-8477 or via text at 274-637 using the keywords TIP BPD.”

Liberty Humane Society serves communities throughout Hudson County with compassion and respect as they aim to provide animals in need with a chance at a lifelong, loving home.

If you have any information about the van, and you have a conscience, please do the right thing.
