Beating

A Toms River teen is charged with conspiracy after inviting a 20-year old Manalapan man to her at an apartment complex in Jackson where he was brutally attacked early Wednesday morning.

The 45-year-old was lying face down in the hallway when his body was discovered on Christmas Eve.

The end of a relationship turned not only bitter, but brutal, say Toms River police who charged a township 20-year-old with aggravated assault, allegedly for beating his ex with a trophy and a rake Tuesday.
