Bomb Threat at Wildwood Catholic Academy Deemed Non-Credible After Police Investigation

 

 Police investigated a potential bomb threat at Wildwood Catholic Academy after a student made a troubling statement. A search of the student's home revealed no explosives or weapons, and authorities later determined the comment was intended as a joke. No charges have been filed, and police continue to work with school officials to ensure safety protocols are followed. Police are encouraging anyone with additional information to contact the department at (609) 522-2411.

 

Six Wins and $100K: Weikert Represents Stone Harbor in Jeopardy! Tournament of Champions 

 Stone Harbor’s Joshua Weikert won six games and over $100,000 on Jeopardy!, earning a spot in the 2026 Tournament of Champions. A professor, policy adviser, and Army Reserve officer, Weikert impressed with his buzzer speed and knowledge. He plans to donate part of his winnings to a scholarship for veterans and prepare for the upcoming tournament by studying and filling knowledge gaps. As for the rest of his winnings, Weikert hasn’t made any firm plans yet, but mentioned possible home projects and maybe a new car. Regardless of how he spends it, he described his time on Jeopardy! as unforgettable, praising the camaraderie among the show’s crew and fellow contestants.

Real ID Deadline Nears: What NJ Travelers Need to Know Before May 7

 Starting May 7, Real ID-compliant identification will be required for domestic air travel in the U.S. In New Jersey, residents must schedule an appointment with the MVC and bring specific documentation to obtain a Real ID. The MVC has added more appointments on Thursdays and will roll out mobile units beginning April 5. While Real ID will soon be required for domestic flights and access to certain federal facilities, it is not necessary for voting. For those who prefer not to get a Real ID, other forms of identification such as a valid passport, permanent resident card, or military ID will continue to be accepted by the TSA.
