WOODBRIDGE, N.J. — Township officials say Avenel-Colonia First Aid Squad put their emergency blue lights on hold while their headquarters became a temporary party house suitable for a red-light district.
Allegations of misconduct by members of the private nonprofit squad — including allegedly hosting parties with prostitutes — are the latest charges by township officials looking to remove squad leaders and volunteers from their positions or shut down the squad in the interest of public safety.
In response, the squad — which was suspended last month by an executive order by Mayor John E. McCormac — launched a petition drive calling on officials to keep the organization in business.
