NEPTUNE NJ Jan 27 2012 — A 27-year-old maintenance worker for the Neptune Township Housing Authority has been charged with taking jewelry from authority residents’ apartments.
Jared Anthony Pivarnick, Ash Drive, was charged on Jan. 16 and again on Friday and faces two counts of burglary and two counts of theft, Neptune Police Lt. William Monroe said Wednesday. Monroe said the stolen items are jewelry and that some of the jewelry has been recovered.
He said Pivarnick’s bail was set at $45,000. Pivarnick was not booked at the Monmouth County Jail, a spokewoman there said.
Monroe said that the case is still under investigation and that anyone with information should call Police Detective Robert Baldwin at 732-988-8000
Paul Caverly, the executive director of the Housing Authority, said Wednesday that an employee had been arrested twice and that the employee “took some items out of what we think are two apartments.”
Caverly said that the authority has hired a labor lawyer and that he has been told not to comment further at this time.
Sharon Turner, 48, lives in an authority apartment on Heck Avenue, and said she is one of the victims and knows that at least two sets of earrings and a necklace belonging to her children were taken.
A cashier with the Neptune High School food service, Turner said she doesn’t know how she would be compensated for the stolen jewelry.
She also expressed concern that the authority had not sent out a notification to people living in the public housing units that an employee with access to their apartments had been charged with burglary and theft.
Caverly said he could not comment.
Police declined to release a photo of Pivarnick.
