An Irvington man who pleaded guilty to a string of armed robberies at pharmacies in the summer of 2022 has been sentenced. The U.S. Attorney’s Office says 28-year-old will serve 11 years and six months in prison.

The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection announced that construction is set to begin for the new Washington Crossing State Park Visitor Center. The 1,000-acre park is a national landmark Hopewell Township and is the site of General George Washington’s historic 1776 Christmas night crossing of the icy Delaware River.
