Ocean County's biggest tourism booster, Freeholder Director Joe Vicari, visits Shawn and Sue to kick off the shore's biggest time of year to attract visitors and generate revenue.

We have an aquarium at Jenkinson's. We have the most coastline in the state of New Jersey, 44 miles," Vicari bragged.

School buses belonging to the Toms River Regional School District went up in flames before dawn today, in a lot off Route 37. Several cars were also damaged. There were no reported injuries, and no interruptions in student busing. The cause is under investigation.
