Summary
Route 72 in Manahawkin was shut for hours after a suspect allegedly hit an ICE agent with a vehicle during a 9:30 a.m. arrest attempt, then drove off despite gunfire.
Stafford Township police said the agent fired at the fleeing vehicle and it was reportedly struck, but by Monday afternoon the suspect had not been found.
Authorities did not say how badly the agent was hurt or whether the suspect was wounded, and ICE did not immediately comment on the incident.
Local police said they were not part of the federal operation, handled traffic control and scene security only, and saw no known threat to public safety.
